Tyra Stewart LMSW she/her

Associate Psychotherapist

Having trained at the Ackerman Institute, my approach is grounded in relational and deeply humanistic principles. I also recognize that the body often holds and communicates experiences that cannot always be articulated verbally. For this reason, I integrate mindfulness and somatic experiencing into my practice. I offer unique therapeutic support and perspective for BIPOC, immigrant, and queer modern professionals navigating intergenerational patterns as they chart their path forward in their own lives and relationships. I look forward to supporting you in this process!

Lived Experience

Sometimes, finding a therapist with whom you share aspects of your identity and lived experience can help create the safety needed to do deeper work. I approach each client as unique and with a sense of curiosity, and I also bring the following perspective to my work as a clinician:

– Black, queer woman

– Immigrant from Jamaica

– Consensual, ethical non-monogamy
