Westbrook University


Westbrook University is a small private, nonsectarian, nonprofit distance-learning university located in Weirton, West Virginia, that specializes in allied, complementary and integrative healthcare professional education.

Its areas of academic study include progressive health science fields, including holistic therapies, and its pedagogical approaches are more flexible than those of many mainstream U.S. universities. As such, it is not regionally accredited. Westbrook is instead nationally accredited by Accrediting Commission International,, which accredits degree-granting private colleges and universities but is not recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Westbrook is additionally accredited by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners and the association’s American Alternative Medical Association division, and is listed by the American Naturopathic Certification Board as an approved distance-learning college.

Founded in 1986, Westbrook offers undergraduate and graduate-level professional degrees, largely to non-traditional students.

Westbrook offers eight undergraduate and 18 graduate degree programs in psychology and mental health counseling, addiction counseling, holistic nursing, nutrition, naturopathy and integrative medicine. The program leading to a doctorate in integrative medicine is open only to physicians, chiropractors and other primary, secondary or tertiary care health professionals. Westbrook also offers Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Master of Arts, Master of Science, Doctor of Science, Doctor of Philosophy and Doctor of Naturopathy degrees.
