Train at the East Side Institute!

The East Side Institute for Group and Short Term Psychotherapy is an international training, education and research center for developing and promoting radically humanistic approaches in psychology, therapy, education and community building. Since the mid-1980s, the Institute has worked to evolve a social-cultural approach to human development that relates to people of all ages as social performers and creators of their lives. Our approach--social therapy--is at once a group-oriented, development-focused psychotherapy and a methodology with broad application in educational, cultural, health and community settings. Social Therapy, is practiced at eight social therapy centers in the US.
