Matthias Leutrum is an IAAP-certified Jungian analyst, licensed psychoanalyst, and visual artist practicing in New York City. Born in Stuttgart, Germany, he trained at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he earned his MFA with magna cum laude honors (Félicitations du Jury) in 1992.

Prior to his analytic career, Leutrum worked as an art educator for over fifteen years at institutions including The Gateway School and The Children's Storefront in New York City.
