Therapy with Arie
Welcome.
I'm Ariette! Like you, I am a fellow human being, and a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
As a clinical mental health therapist and graduate of seminary-based counselling, I am trained to provide psychotherapy and Christian counselling services across Canada, and in-person/hybrid services in Toronto.
Specializing in Emotion-Focussed Therapy for teens and adults, I'm here to help you unpack inner child experiences and emotions in a safe space + heal.
How can I help you?
Welcome to Therapy with Arie, where we believe in the power of neuroplasticity and emotional healing.
As Mark Twain once said, “The secret of getting ahead is getting started.”
I'm here to help you get unstuck and move toward a happier, healthier life.
As a Chinese-Canadian therapist, I draw from both my professional training and lived experience to support East Asian adult children of immigrants and people of colour who are ready to break generational cycles of trauma. I am deeply passionate about inner child healing and helping others feel empowered in their growth.
My approach to mental health is holistic. I consider your personality, environment, family and social dynamics, and cultural background. Rooted in a culturally-sensitive, trauma-informed lens, I work compassionately and collaboratively with each client.
I don’t claim to be the expert on your life—but I am committed to walking alongside you on your healing journey. My counselling style is person-centred, emotion-focused, trauma-informed, and strengths-based.
My hope is to help you:
-
Break free from generational trauma
-
Befriend your inner child
-
Build resilience and self-confidence
-
Learn to cope with life’s difficulties with compassion and courage
Trauma may be part of your story—but it’s not the whole story. Healing is possible.
It’s time to take back your power, and rewrite your narrative.
