Clinical Psychology Faculty and Staff

Meet the Clinical Psychology faculty at the Wheaton College Graduate School

Twenty-four School of Psychology, Counseling, and Family Therapy faculty, adjunct faculty and guest instructors play a role in the clinical psychology program. The core faculty consists of eight individuals who contribute more than half of their time to doctoral education. All of the core faculty members completed doctoral programs and internships that are accredited by the American Psychological Association. Consistent with the training model employed, every effort has been made to attract scholars with strong interests in clinical practice and practitioners with strong scholarly interests and abilities.
