Honoring Philip Cushman
Philip Cushman, a moral and political luminary in the field of psychology, died on August 22, 2022, the victim of a hit-and-run accident.
A beloved teacher, scholar, and clinician, Phil is remembered for his rich analysis of how the self has been conceptualized in the field of psychology, along with his historical and critical exploration of the moral and political horizons of psychotherapy.
With the establishment of this endowed Fund, created to honor Phil and foster his moral imagination for the field of psychology, we will continue this critically important work for generations to come.
Psychology & the Other Conference
The Psychology & the Other Conference is a yearly convening that aims to revitalize psychology by
bringing it into dialogue with philosophy, theology, and other humanities rich traditions.
“The argument over the question of whether or not psychology is or is not a philosophical science is, for psychology, a struggle for its very existence.”
