Institute for Expressive Analysis

Our philosophy is formed around the importance of integrating verbal, "talk therapy" with nonverbal

The Institute for Expressive Analysis (IEA) is a New York State License qualifying program that offers training in psychoanalysis. IEA places a particular emphasis on the integration of scientific-theory based aspects of psychotherapy and psychoanalysis with the creative process of doing sound clinical work. The curriculum provides a diversity of theoretical approaches including Object Relations, Self Psychology, Relational Psychoanalysis, Jungian, and Contemporary Freudian theory. Training focuses on both verbal and nonverbal aspects of treatment and is applicable for both private practice and institutional settings. The Institute for Expressive Analysis also has a consultation center which provides the New York City community with referrals for low fee expressive therapy and traditional psychotherapy/psychoanalysis.

A note from IEA’s Executive Director, Jamie Yasgur, on National Dance Day:

For me, dance has always been a way of coming home. Sometimes that’s a celebration with a hundred people. Sometimes it’s stretching on the floor before work, or sweating out a stressful week. Most of the time it’s just me in my kitchen, dancing badly and being a little bit silly.

Have you danced today?

As we begin the fall, we wanted to share that the Institute for Expressive Analysis (IEA) Consultation Center is currently accepting new referrals for psychotherapy and psychoanalysis.

We offer both in-person sessions in Union Square and virtual sessions with licensed clinicians and advanced post-graduate therapists. Our therapists work with adults, adolescents, and children over five.

We also offer sliding-scale and low-fee options to help make ongoing weekly therapy more accessible. For many clients, our lower-fee options are comparable to the cost of an insurance co-pay.

IEA therapists bring training in psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, along with creative arts approaches that may incorporate visual art, music, drama, and movement. We work with people seeking support with anxiety and depression, relationships, grief and loss, life transitions, substance use, and creative or performance-related concerns.

We believe that finding the right therapeutic relationship matters. We approach each referral thoughtfully, with attention to the individual and to finding a therapist who can offer engaged, attuned care.

Please share this post and our updated Consultation Center flyer with friends, family, colleagues, or anyone who might benefit from knowing about this resource.

For referrals or more information, contact us at [email protected].

August 26 gives us two wonderful reasons to celebrate.

🐾 National Dog Day reminds us of the healing power of unconditional love, loyalty, and being greeted like we're the best part of someone's day.

💜 Women's Equality Day reminds us that every person deserves to be seen, heard, respected, and given the opportunity to thrive.

Today, IEA is celebrating the women who change the world and the dogs who somehow make it a little easier to live in it. Swipe to see some of our amazing board members with their pups!

Here's to compassion, courage, connection...and plenty of tail wags.
