Forest Institute has two convenient locations where students can learn in an environment that is complementary to their goals as professional psychologists.

Springfield Campus

Nestled in the heart of the Missouri Ozarks, our Springfield Campus was founded in 1979 by practicing psychologists who understood the best way to learn is to practice.

The 58-acre campus include our main academic building along with on-site one- and two-bedroom apartments.

Forest in Springfield also operates the Robert J. Murney Clinic, giving students a unique opportunity to do clinical studies in a controlled environment, in most cases alongside their current practicing instructors.


St. Louis Site

Known as they "Gateway to the West," the greater St. Louis area is truly an urban community and Missouri's most populous metropolitan area.

In 2010, Forest Institute opened our newest site situated in the middle of Creve Coeur, a vibrant and eclectic suburb.

Programs available in St. Louis include the Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology, Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, Master of Science in Applied Behavior Analysis, and our Board Certified Behavior Analyst ® certificate program.
