Eric Rogers, Ph.D. Chicago Campus

Eric Rogers, Ph.D.
Core Faculty
M.A. Counseling, Blended Format Program

In 25 years of teaching, I am convinced true learning, development and growth really takes place with critical thoughts, sociocultural contextual understandings and applications of systematic assessment, evaluation and treatment with clients.

I encourage students to explore, to examine and to engage in lifelong learning, growth and development through research, clinical practice, world travel and social engagement with a diverse world.

Education is knowledge, and knowledge is power. Through the influence and application of teaching, research, and clinical experience, we define and determine effective competence. Students have to exemplify and effectuate socially responsible character and competence. 

I’m a part of the Adler School because we believe and practice lifelong learning, growth, development and training. I’m here to educate, enlighten, and empower socially responsible practitioners. Failure is just not an option.
