Dr. Erica Gardner-Schuster
Psychologist, PhD
I am a specialized trauma- & attachment-oriented group therapist committed to helping adults heal, grow and cultivate more fulfilling relationships and lives. In my groups, healing happens in the context of a safe therapeutic community of fellow travelers who can relate, help each other feel less alone, and support one another in making the changes needed to get more out of life. I also use a liberation psychology lens to help group members explore the intersection of cultural and identify factors and mental health and feel more confident and empowered in their lives.
Group therapy can help you find deeper meaning and connection through the practice of authenticity: "letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are" (Brené Brown). By helping you bring your full authentic self into connection, Group can help you transcend loneliness to find more fulfilling relationships. Group can help you lean into your life with more courage, compassion and vulnerability. Group can support your unique journey as you find your way home to where you belong, and to the relationships that sustain you.

Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
I provide therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties, with a focus on helping high-functioning individuals who feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or emotionally "stuck". My approach is collaborative, structured, and insight-oriented, combining evidence-based strategies with deeper exploration of emotional and relational patterns to support meaningful, lasting change. Clients often appreciate my thoughtful, direct, and supportive style, as well as the practical tools they gain to better manage emotions, improve relationships, and navigate life with greater clarity and confidence. I offer a professional, supportive space for individuals seeking both understanding and forward momentum, and I welcome those ready to engage intentionally in the therapeutic process.
