The NYIGT holds to the principle that good teaching/learning emerges from a field of mutual interest. From the beginning of the Institute, qualified members have offered courses coming from their interests, involvements and passions. Likewise, students have had to form their own "programs" out of their individual needs and concerns. Each student organizes his or her own "program" based on need, interest and excitement, often "apprenticing" with one member for some time. We believe this leads to growth and awareness in a way that most effectively embodies the values and spirit of Gestalt therapy, rather than mere introjecting; a fluid teaching/learning process hopefully encourages more contactful understanding.

The courses listed here are given autonomously by each of the individual instructors, all of whom are Full Members of our Institute. They establish their own entrance requirements and fees. This uncentralized structure requires self-generated learning. We encourage students to discover the appropriate instructor(s) for themselves at this particular point in their learning. To do so, please contact the instructors directly for a complete description. Availability of any specific offering is subject to change.
