Express Yourself Therapy is a group private practice providing psychotherapy for individuals, couples/polycules, and families in New York. EYT specializes in gender, sex, and sexuality with specific expertise regarding work with underserved populations, including members of the LGBTQIA+ communities, those practicing polyamory/consensual non-monogamy, kink/BDSM, and sex workers, as well as sex-related issues such as sexual desire discrepancy, sexual trauma, sexual anxiety, and sexual function. We are a team of therapists that identify as sex-positive, LGBTQIA+, kinky, polyamorous practicing/affirming, sex worker affirming, neurodivergent affirming, body-positive, and anti-racist. We are committed to diversity and consideration of all applicants for the position(s). We encourage BIPOC & LGBTQIA+ applicants of diverse backgrounds to apply.

COVID-19: EYT is currently operating as a hybrid organization. Some clinicians are seeing clients both in-person and virtually, and some are working fully virtual. We value the health and wellness of our team, communities, and clients. No staff or client will ever be forced to do sessions in-person. If COVID cases should rise again, we will opt for the safest option for the team, community, and clients.
