2020-06-04T15:00:46-07:00

Erinn Cameron Five questions for Clinical Psychology student, Erinn Cameron. Ms. Cameron is pursuing her PhD in Clinical Psychology at Fielding Graduate University's School of Psychology. What brought you to Fielding? I was drawn to Fielding because of its commitment to providing educational opportunities for diverse and non-traditional populations of students.

Since coming to Fielding, I have gained personal skills in the areas of self-reflection, critical thinking, self-confidence, self-empowerment, and scholarly collaboration. My mentor and [...]

Celebrate Mother’s Day: Perfection Not Required

2020-05-07T14:40:07-07:00

[instagram-feed showcaption=false] Nina Newman, PhD  Doctoral faculty, Infant & Early Childhood Development MAy 7, 2020 As we look to Mother’s Day in this unprecedented time, it is an opportunity to reflect on what this pandemic is teaching us about mothering (parenting), the importance of relationships, and the true nature of development. As many families’ lives have been upended and their daily routines and support abruptly halted or diminished, the first impulse has been to grip onto ‘normal’ and try to re-create in another mode, most often through screen time. This is especially true for children who have been expected to resume [...]

Rethinking social distancing for mothers and hospitalized babies

2020-05-07T13:44:08-07:00

Joy Voyles Browne, PhD Adjunct faculty, Infant & Early Childhood Development April 16, 2020 During this tenuous time of needing to provide protection for both hospital staff and the larger community, many policies in hospitals have included restricting visitors from being with their hospitalized loved ones.  Policies include restrictions for “visiting” babies in intensive care.  Many ICUs are preventing all family members from being with their babies, some have changed their policies to allow one parent to be with their baby.  Regardless of current policies and protections, it is imperative that we change our thinking about how babies and mothers need [...]

Mother as First Teacher, and Hair Stylist

2020-05-06T16:53:45-07:00

Mary G Warren, PhD, IMH-E® Doctoral faculty, Infant & Early Childhood Development MAy 6, 2020 Our lives are steeped in culture. Hair care is part of how we learn about, are influenced by, and revise our own culture. Mothers are the first architects of how our hair reflects us. Growing up, who first took care of your hair? Probably this person was your Mother. She washed it, dried it, combed it, and when there was enough to tie up some way, you may have sprouted a palm tree out of the top of your head. Or, maybe your hair was cut [...]

Supply Chains and Workers’ Chains: Key to Understanding Climate Change and Sustainability

2020-04-21T10:24:24-07:00

[excerpt from “Why Sustainability Leadership is Needed,” a chapter to appear in Leadership in Sustainability: Case Studies in Practice (Fielding University Press, forthcoming 2020)] by Richard P. Appelbaum, PHD The nature of production has changed over the part fifty years, and not in ways that auger well for our planet or its people. These changes – which reflect larger, systemic processes of globalization – are symbolized by the half-century shift in fortunes between the world’s largest corporations (Lichtenstein, 2005). The emblematic late 20th century corporation was General Motors, whose revenues made it at the time the world’s largest firm. General Motors was [...]

How to shift your intention and attention By Shirley Engelmeier & Terry Hildebrandt, PhD, MCC, MCEC In a business environment that is increasingly competitive – both in terms of attracting customers and employees – companies are continually looking for a silver bullet to help them consistently attract and retain top talent and lifelong customers.

The New FOMO: What is the Impact of Coronavirus News Overload?

2020-03-25T15:06:22-07:00

BY PAM RUTLEDGE, PHD Doctoral faculty, Media Psychology MARCH 25, 2020 Last week we were worried about the negative impact of cellphone overuse.  Now we’re worried about staying employed, entertained and connected.  It’s funny how a little pandemic shifts your opinion.  In trying to decide about the impact of media consumption, I pay attention to how people use devices and what content they consume, not the amount of time or the frequency.  Device use during a pandemic resets the boundaries between what we think of as ‘appropriate’‘ vs. ‘problematic.’  What someone last week might have considered ‘overuse’ or ‘lack of personal boundaries’ now [...]
