Adler University is a private university, with two campuses in North America. The university's flagship campus is in Chicago, Illinois, and its satellite campus is located in Vancouver, British Columbia. The university also offers online classes and degree programs online for both masters and doctoral students.

Adler University’s Counselling Psychology: School and Youth Concentration programs prepare students with comprehensive knowledge, skills, and real-world experience to provide therapeutic services for children, adolescents, and their families across a wide range of settings. Students gain a strong foundation in counselling theories and methods and are trained to be self-reflexive, socially responsible clinicians. Students gain the knowledge and skills to create real change for youth and adolescents, and our diverse faculty brings together rigorous classroom learning with individualized mentorship and hands-on professional experience. Adler University offers two options of its Counselling Psychology: School & Youth programs for students. The Master of Arts (M.A.) in Counselling Psychology: School & Youth program includes a thesis, and the Master of Counselling Psychology: School & Youth program is a non-thesis option. Both options are accepted by the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors and the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. Adler University’s Master of Counselling Psychology: School & Youth program provides a non-thesis option for students interested in a practitioner-based master’s degree credential, and empowers students with clinical coursework that reflects contemporary challenges counsellors of children and adolescents face.
