ABOUT
Noia Wellness
What does "Noia" mean
We get this question ALL the time! And, it's our favourite to answer.
Pronounced: NOY-uh
In ancient Greek, the suffix "-noia" signifies thought, intellect, the mind, and cognition. Words such as "eu-noia", "dys-noia", and "para-noia" are common uses of the suffix.*
​
In Hebrew, "Noia" is a name that represents "movement" or "motion". It is derived from the Hebrew word "noya" which means "swaying gently".**
"The name, Noia Wellness, to me, represents what makes human beings so incredibly unique: the ability to think, perceive, and interact in the world with profound resiliency. Healing occurs through movement and motion, both physically and emotionally. Stagnancy is often what keeps us stuck, and movement allows us to propel forward into anew. Noia Wellness is a space for the mind, the body, and the spirit to move into greater balance and well-being."
- Emily Grunthal, Founder

Mission Statement
Noia Wellness is a gathering place for everyone
to feel seen and heard for who they truly are.
Our Philosophy
At Noia Wellness, we believe that therapy should be as unique as the person seeking it. Our holistic and integrative approach means we don’t rely on a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we meet you where you are, drawing from a variety of therapeutic tools to create a space where you can be fully yourself, without judgment. To us, having a holistic mindset means to view clients as whole beings who can experience imbalances in mental, physical, emotional, and/or spiritual domain. We work with all domains to create full-system wellness.
​
Our motto, "more than just talk therapy" speaks to our philosophy of holistic wellness. We integrate traditional talk therapy, with mind-body approaches, using a trauma-informed lens, to support clients in finding balance in mind, body, and spirit.
​
We are committed to authenticity—both yours and ours. We know that true healing happens when you feel seen, heard, and valued for who you truly are. That’s why our therapists bring their real selves to every session, creating a genuine connection that makes it feel safer and easier for you to do the same.
​
Therapy is rooted in trust. We take the time to get to know you, to understand your life, your experiences, and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. From there, we work together, at your pace, adjusting our approach as needed to ensure that therapy feels right for you. It’s a journey we walk together, with your comfort and well-being guiding the way.
Our mission is simple yet profoundly important to us: to help you feel seen and heard for who you truly are, and through that authenticity find balance and healing. At Noia Wellness, we hope you’ll find a space where you’re not just another client—you’re someone we care deeply about. Our aim is to create an atmosphere that’s not only nurturing and compassionate but also deeply engaging and empowering.
​
If you’re ready to explore new paths, untangle life’s complexities, or simply reconnect with yourself, we’re here to support you every step of the way. We can't wait to meet you.
