This week Michael is joined by his former classmate and colleague, Kristin Davisson, PsyD. Kristin, (she/her/hers) is

a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in private practice in Chicago, IL and is a former Assistant Adjunct Professor at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She is the current President of Section III (Women, Gender, Psychoanalysis) and is a member of Section IX (Section for Social Responsibility) and the Early Career Committee of Division 39. She is the former recipient of Division 39, Section III’s Dissertation Award and Division 39, Early Career Committee’s Scholar Award and is a former fellow at the Chicago Center for Psychoanalysis. She also is a co-editor and contributing author of the book, A Womb of her Own: Women’s Struggle for Sexual and Reproductive Autonomy.
In addition to Section III’s strong history in women’s rights, we are embracing other facets of gender including gender diversity and nonbinary identities, issues for women of color, queer women’s issues, sexual trafficking, and sexual and reproductive autonomy. We have welcomed new members and are particularly excited about the increase in early career membership and diversity of voices in our section as well as collaboration with MCC, SGI and Section IX on overlapping passions and goals.
