Social Constructionist
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.
16 Years Experience

Washington Heights is upper Manhattan's Dominican heart, a dense, vibrant neighborhood of multigenerational families, small businesses, and strong cultural identity, increasingly touched by gentrification pressure. Mental health needs include immigrant and bicultural family dynamics, economic strain, and demand for Spanish-language care — which the neighborhood is comparatively well positioned to meet, anchored by NewYork-Presbyterian's medical campus and Columbia's community-facing programs. The city's wider therapy market adds depth for those who can access it.
