Dr. Shawn Gersman founded The Center for Personal Growth based upon the philosophy that individuals have within themselves the capacity to achieve their dreams and goals. This capacity is often not realized due to self-imposed limitations or ways of viewing ourselves and relationships to others which are rooted in childhood. Dr. Gersman's work focuses on helping the individual understand these maladaptive attitudes and ways of thinking, so that one can gain better mastery over how one thinks and feels. Dr. Shawn Gersman graduated from the University of Virginia School of Medicine in 1989. He completed his residency in psychiatry at St. Luke's - Roosevelt Hospital Center in Manhattan in 1993. He supplemented his extensive training in the use of psychiatric medication with three years of study in psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis at the William Alanson White Institute in Manhattan.Dr. Gersman served as Chief of Substance Abuse Services at Saint Vincent's
