The East Side Institute for Group and Short Term Psychotherapy held its sixth annual Psych Out Awards benefit at the elegant Tribeca Rooftop on Monday, February 12, 2007.  The Institute established these awards five years ago to recognize colleagues throughout the US and internationally who are working to support people to learn, develop and create change in their lives and their communities. 

The Psych Out Awards event is also a benefit to support the Institute. As a privately funded non-profit, we rely on the contributions of our friends and supporters to enable us to design cutting edge development programs and to train professionals internationally.  We are pleased to announce that Psych Out 2007 raised $140,000.
