EDUCATION​

BA: Skidmore College

PhD & MA: University of Missouri-Columbia

A psychologist and consultant since 2001, Dr. Gershuny has held faculty positions at Harvard Medical School, Skidmore College, and Bard College (tenured); and has held treatment and supervisory positions at Harvard Medical School’s Massachusetts General Hospital and McLean Hospital. Her research has been presented at conferences throughout the world and she is the author of numerous scientific and clinical treatment publications in the top professional journals in the fields of Psychology and Psychiatry. Her writing and presentations focus on her groundbreaking research into the development and treatment of various types of anxiety and stress-related symptoms and the interaction among such symptoms. 

Dr. Gershuny is frequently quoted and interviewed in the media, and appears as a spotlighted expert in the documentary film, Seeking Perfection, which aired on the Discovery Channel in the U.S. and on the BBC in Europe and continues to be shown in college and university classrooms as a teaching tool for undergraduate and graduate students.

Along with scientifically supported approaches to well-being and health such as cognitive behavioral and behavior analytic, Dr. Gershuny incorporates forms of holistic and complementary care and philosophies (e.g., meditation, energy psychology - EFT, energy healing - reiki) into her work as both a psychologist and a consultant.
