I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, men's mental health concerns, relationship difficulties, workplace stress, and adjustment following injury or major life changes. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or frustrated that things are not improving despite trying to push through on their own. I help clients move forward through practical, evidence-based approaches tailored to the individual, with a focus on building resilience, strengthening relationships, and creating meaningful and lasting change.

I'm always grateful for the opportunity to provide support, as I'm aware of the bravery that therapy takes, being vulnerable in session is immense. All clinicians at the clinic I run aim to work in a non-directive, client-centred way, meaning the client sets their own treatment goals and we're just the support that holds difficult or overwhelming emotions where needed. This allows the client to drive their own therapy and shows them that they can create a better life. I am currently taking face-to-face clients with immediate availability.

I am committed to exceeding your expectations of therapy. My professional clinical work brings together important features for effective psychotherapy. Neurobiological attunement being at the forefront, deep listening and skilful facilitation for assured relief and healing. Anchored in the body, as well as dialogue, together we access the origins of distress and augment an innate healing response. Painful and scary experiences such as anxiety, depression and anger can be effectively treated by accessing their origins within the body. My areas of expertise are trauma, and performance blocks.

My clients are adults who sense that something deeper is driving what's happening on the surface — the burnout that rest doesn't resolve, the relationship pattern that keeps repeating, the grief that won't move, the version of themselves they keep returning to despite wanting to change. They're often high-functioning people carrying more than they show. They've tried pushing through. They're ready to try something different. They don't need to arrive with everything figured out — just a willingness to look honestly at what's been getting in the way.

Hi, I'm Bec Stewart. Many people have shared with me that while traditional talk therapy can be helpful, it sometimes doesn’t bring about the deeper change or healing they’re hoping for. That’s why I'm passionate about a holistic, integrative approach, which gently supports you in going beyond surface-level solutions and exploring the roots of your challenges. (EMDR, DBR, parts-work, & somatic therapies ). I know this kind of therapy can take courage, but many find it opens the door to more meaningful, long-lasting change. It’s a privilege to walk alongside you on what could be a transformative journey.

You are so much more than a symptom, a struggle, or a diagnosis. People come to therapy for different reasons—often to work through challenges, and also in search of something more: greater self-understanding, connection or meaning. I offer a safe, compassionate space to explore both life’s challenges and opportunities for growth. I'm guided by a holistic understanding that our inner and outer worlds are deeply interconnected through mind, body, emotion, relationship, health, environment and spirit. I am passionate about these connections, particularly in the areas of complex trauma, chronic health conditions and ancestral patterns
