Adler School of Professional Psychology

Founded in 1952, the Adler School of Professional Psychology is the oldest independent school of psychology in the United States. This school is named after Alfred Adler (1870-1937), the first community psychologist, whose theories and teachings of psychology emphasize the uniqueness of every individual's relationship and connection with society.

The Adler School is committed to continuing the work of Alfred Adler by producing socially responsible graduates, by providing holistic services to individuals and communities, and by promoting social justice. This school's innovative program curricula prepare socially responsible practitioners by promoting social justice through education and training. Students come from all over the world to study in a collaborative atmosphere among accomplished faculty who are leaders in their field.

In addition to preparing students to practice general clinical psychology, Adler School offers a Community Service Practicum (CSP) - an exciting educational experience for students. Available in the first-year curriculum for Adler School students, this unique practicum allows students to get involved in community organizing, volunteer projects, political initiatives, advocacy and public policy analysis.

In 2007, the School received the American Psychological Association Board of Educational Affairs Award for Innovative Practices in Graduate Education in Psychology. This is a significant and prestigious recognition for the School's commitment to educating and training socially responsible psychologists through innovative programs that combine service learning in the form of the Community Service Practicum and coursework that enables Adler School graduates to address a broad range of social issues that impact the clients they serve.
