Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
The pain of trying to stay the same has become unbearable. You might look fine on the outside but inside, you’re unraveling. Panic, numbness, or a deep sense of disconnection is starting to take over your days. You’re exhausted from overthinking and pretending to be okay. I help sensitive women and queer adults who feel like they’re at a breaking point, and don’t know where to turn.

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.

Barry Herbach
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You don’t have to stay stuck in old pain. I help people move through trauma, anxiety, and grief using EMDR therapy — a powerful, effective method that goes deeper than talk alone.
Most of my clients show up strong for others but feel overwhelmed inside. They’ve tried to “just move on” — but it’s not that simple. EMDR helps your nervous system finally let go.
I’ve been doing this work for nearly 30 years, and I bring a steady, compassionate presence to every session. We go at your pace. You don’t have to relive everything — but you don’t have to carry it alone either.

Rene Gonzalez
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Childhood emotional neglect (CEN) can happen in families with loving parents who weren't there for their kids enough, and in abusive ones, too. It can lead to anxiety, depression, or trauma, and because these experiences are about what didn't happen, the wounds can be hard to see. That's why having guidance from an expert can make such a difference. Treatment with me works because I have extensive training from institutions like NYU and Columbia, but also because I draw from my own healing journey to know what actually works.

Jillian Luz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, ATR
I work from a non-pathologizing lens and strive to support my clients in exploring what past or current traumatic experiences, including personal/specific, cultural, and systemic, may be currently impacting their self-view and functioning.
I offer EMDR and IFS treatment to support processing past trauma (including chronic, relational, and childhood traumas) and grief & loss that may be causing current distress, unhappiness, relationship challenges, negative beliefs about one's self or abilities, and a lack of personal fulfillment. I also specialize in working with neurodivergent clients, especially late/adult diagnosis.
