Leslie Boyle-Milroy, (she/her)

My time at Adler Graduate School has been a rich and empowering experience, helping me to shift my focus from “what do I want to do?” to “who do I want to be?” Starting my counseling program at AGS, I had expected to learn about theories and techniques, but working toward my degree has been much more than that. AGS is rooted in community and driven by social justice, and it has been wonderful getting to know my professors, advisors, and fellow students – even as a fully remote student. I have appreciated AGS’s comprehensive approach to counseling education. The classes provide the broad, practical skills we need to succeed, such as in interviewing and ethics, while also exposing us to the breadth and depth of counseling topics and specialties. The work is not always easy, yet I have found it to be more than worth it.
