IEA

IEA is dedicated to the exploration and application of creativity in the processing and analysis of transference and resistance in depth-oriented psychoanalytic treatment... Our philosophy is formed around the importance of integrating verbal, "talk therapy" with nonverbal work and communications - starting by locating feelings in the body and experiencing transference and countertransference in the here and now. It is rewarding that today neuropsychoanalytic research and infant studies show that empathy is a body experience, as IEA's founder Dr. Arthur Robbins taught 35 years ago... IEA's student body is drawn from a wide base - including psychology, nursing, social work, law, teaching, as well as the many creative arts therapies. We remain the only post graduate training program in the country that is dedicated to combining depth oriented psychoanalytic treatment with options for the integration of creative arts techniques.
