ADIL QURESHI
TEACHER
I grew up in Western Canada and completed my undergraduate degree in political science at the University of Alberta. I did a masters in psychological counseling at Teachers College, Columbia University and then a PhD in counseling psychology at the University of Southern California with a specialization in multicultural counseling psychology. For the past 20 years I have been living in Barcelona. I teach in a variety of higher education settings, including a business school, a study abroad program, a Canadian counselling psychology program as well as at Metáfora. I am a clinical supervisor for Mindgram, a company that provides B2B mental health support, and I have a small private practice and also am the counsellor for an international design school and for a foundation that helps refugees complete their university studies.
