Holly Stewart

Holly brings together a lifetime of personal insight, a wealth of business leadership experience, and a genuine passion for helping individuals and families find hope, healing, and a path forward.

Growing up in Scarborough, Holly witnessed firsthand the impact that addiction and mental health challenges can have on individuals, families, and communities. Those early experiences stayed with her and shaped the way she sees people, the challenges they face, and the importance of compassion, understanding, and second chances.

Holly began her professional career at Honda Finance, where she spent over a decade working in the finance industry and developing a strong foundation in business, financial management, and organizational operations. She later ventured into entrepreneurship and held several senior executive leadership roles across diverse industries. She spent five years as Chief Operating Officer of Casa Loma, where she further developed her expertise in operations, organizational leadership, and strategic growth.

Throughout these professional experiences, Holly’s personal connection to addiction and mental health remained close to her heart. Ultimately, it was this connection that drew her toward a field where she could bring her professional experience and personal understanding together in a meaningful way.

Today, as Managing Director of Centres for Health and Healing, Holly is committed to helping build an environment where people feel safe, supported, and understood, not defined by their struggles or their past, but recognized for their potential and their capacity for change. She believes that recovery is about more than overcoming addiction or managing mental health challenges, it is about helping people rediscover themselves, rebuild relationships, and create a life they feel hopeful about.

Holly leads with the belief that people deserve dignity, compassion, and the opportunity to begin again. For her, this work is more than a professional responsibility. It is personal.
