Connection is the most important aspect of our therapeutic process – whether it's connection to yourself, healing a connection to an important other, or in-session connecting with your therapist.

We are committed to connecting with our clients deeply – both through our work as psychotherapists and our genuine passion for human connection. With our time together, we create the space for you to be seen and heard, while providing the tools needed to make connections and heal from life’s challenges.

The process of healing is at the heart of Noun Therapy

We are a practice with an authentic approach and a deep desire to heal relationships whether that’s with yourself or another person. Our genuine love for human connection drives us to support you by exploring the patterns and challenges that are keeping you disconnected and defeated to make lasting change.

Our philosophy is to meet you where you are

How can we support you?

Therapy for Couples

Having a therapist come along side your relationship to help create a more secure bond can create lasting change.

Therapy for Individuals

Working together, we will explore the challenges that are impacting your well-being through individual therapy.

Relational Therapy

Relational therapy is similar to couples or family therapy, but for a variety of close relationships.

Hi, I'm Monique

I am a therapist who is committed to providing you with a safe space where we can explore the factors that have shaped your current circumstances together. 

Whether your story include trauma, anxiety, difficulties in managing low mood, interpersonal relationship challenges, struggles with eating disorders, a desire to explore your own identity, etc. my goal is to support you in healing wounds, learn supportive coping skills, better understand feelings, and unlearn the patterns that no longer serve you. 

Drawing from different therapeutic orientations, I work to gain a holistic understanding of you. I tailor therapy to best meet your needs and goals by using modern psychodynamic approaches, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and art therapy. 

I speak Mandarin and English, which I can use in our sessions, and am passionate about creating an inclusive, anti-oppressive space. I work with a diverse client population and welcome all communities in my practice. 

I am committed to building and maintaining the trust necessary to support this process. No matter where you are at, I see you and I encourage you to reach out to connect with me.

 

The fun bits

What I'm Loving

Leaning into other’s humanity and being human together. Hot yoga on a frosty morning. Weekends at dog parks. 

What I'm learning

Getting out of the comparison trap. Normalizing not always thriving, human beings are seasonal. Grounding power in stillness.

What I'm not About

“Suck it up, buttercup…” Folding laundry.

What I Believe

Starting over could be part of the journey. In breaking generational cycles.

What I'm Loving

Saturday morning bike rides to the Farmer’s Market. Ghost Energy Drinks before leg day. Ruby, my brother’s GSD/Husky mix who I steal on weekends.

What I'm learning

Spending less time on screens and more time outside works wonders for the soul. The quality of our relationships often impacts the quality of our lives. Contentment is underrated.

What I Believe

It’s hard to hate someone up close. Not taking a stance is taking a stance. In myself.

Hi, I'm Ariette Hung

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master of Divinity in Clinical Counselling from Tyndale University. I am a clinical professional with a drive to provide compassionate care to individuals in the mental, spiritual, and emotional health space. The heart behind what I do is a desire to help people feel more empowered and equipped to navigate their inner turbulence and life’s challenges from mood disruptions to grief and loss to relationship stress.

Using Emotion-Focussed Individual Therapy (EFIT) and an integrative approach, my therapeutic approach is holistic, warm, and non-pathologizing. Drawing from therapeutic models and frameworks such as Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and Family Systems Theory, I also help people change maladaptive patterns of relating, behaving, and thinking, so that they can feel more mentally and emotionally healthy and have better, more secure relationships with others. Upon request, I can also provide and integrate Christian-based counselling and spiritual direction.

As a Chinese-Canadian therapist, I am deeply passionate about helping children of immigrants heal from generational trauma and break cycles of dysfunction. I work with childhood trauma and ongoing family-centred issues such as navigating dysfunctional family relationships with emotionally immature, abusive or neglectful relatives and empower clients to do inner child work to help them heal the emotional and attachment wounds that keep them from thriving in their personal relationships.

Outside of my work, you’ll find me filling my bookshelves and reading, spending time with friends and family, enjoying art and culture, exploring cool places around Toronto, and finding cute dogs to pet!

To ensure your best care and right fit, please reach out for a complimentary, 15-minute consultation!
