Research Centers & Clinics Associated with Counseling & Educational Psychology
Department faculty and students are associated with a variety of projects which provide excellent opportunities for research and professional training. Such projects include:
7Cs Community Counseling Clinic
The 7Cs Community Counseling Clinic is a partnership between Marquette University and the Guest House of Milwaukee, Inc., a shelter for homeless men in Milwaukee. Located within the Guest House, the 7Cs Clinic provides addiction-mental health treatment at no cost to clients. Through this clinic, individuals facing difficult circumstances – e.g., homelessness, joblessness, co-existing psychiatric disorders, family disturbance – receive comprehensive treatment, students receive “real world” clinical training, and research is conducted that informs others in this important endeavor to provide the most effective treatment.

The Behavior Clinic was founded in 2003 by Marquette University’s School of Education in partnership with Penfield Children’s Center, a large, community-based agency serving inner-city families with young children who have developmental disabilities. The Behavior Clinic offers free mental health services for children who are experiencing significant behavior and emotional problems. Graduate students receive specialized training and gain supervised clinical experiences working directly with the children and their families. The clinic also has an ongoing applied research program that regularly contributes new findings to the relatively new field of pediatric mental health.
