Cheri L. Hausmann

I am a doctoral student at Texas Woman's University entering candidacy during the fall of 2024, a licensed psychotherapist, psychoanalyst candidate, and a concurrent graduate student in both history and philosophy. I consider myself to be a clinical philosopher/historian. Within the context of my work and academic pursuits, I look to uncover historical silences regarding the philosophical take of the human experience and apply these components within a clinical space. 

My doctorate work at Texas Woman's University pertains to research in relation to maternal death and existential crisis conditions from the lens of object relations. My expected graduation date is in the fall of 2025.  I will complete my second master's in history from Eastern Washington University in the fall of 2024. I am pursuing a third master's degree in philosophy at Holy Apostles College and Seminary with a focus on the history of philosophy. My thesis and research will focus upon the ontological argument of Anselm and Descartes and the shift in perspective regarding the soteriological in contemporary philosophy.
