Schools with music therapy programs
This is link from the AMTA (American Music Therapy Association) site. Unfortunately, many or most of the dedicated Music Therapy programs seem to be BA level programs.
The Education and Training section from the NAADAC (National Association of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors) site. Includes several articles, including links to programs at the AA, BA, and graduate levels.

So far I have not found many sites with lists of Counseling programs. Also, what I have found aren't very complete and I have no lists for school counseling. Luckily they are easy to find on your own. Virtually every school with a graduate program in education has counseling and school counseling as an option and many graduate psychology departments have a counseling option at the masters or doctorate level. I am still on the lookout for better, more complete lists (I'm undecided if I'll take on the time consuming task of putting one together), but until then you can find many programs in the education and psychology sections of this page.
