As a community, we look to the higher purpose of human well-being with an understanding of the impact our work will have on those we serve and the world at large. Our students support the common good through dedication to the real-world application and hands-on practice of psychology. They chose Forest to assist them on their path to becoming licensed mental health professionals. Each knows that theory is important but that it must be applied and honed to serve people. Our staff and faculty believe in the power of our students as individuals and strive to enrich all educational and training experiences. With a practioner-based model that combines theory and experience, we believe that Forest offers one of the most student-centered and individualized graduate programs in psychology available. We believe in Enriching the lives of those we teach and counsel, Advancing the field through scholarship and research and Serving each other and the community. We have longstanding roots in our community and operate our own clinic to serve those who need us.

 

We believe in the power of the individual, the resilience of the human spirit and the value of focused, forward-thinking. We believe that our approach is different and we believe that different is good. If you want a program that provides service to others, close faculty relationships and a community of scholars, you will appreciate the difference that is Forest.
