Leswin Laubscher, Ph.D.

Northwestern University

 

Dr. Leswin Laubscher received his Ph.D. from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. He also studied at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa, where he obtained his Masters and Baccalaureate degrees.

In addition to clinical experience as a psychologist in both South Africa and the United States, Dr. Laubscher also counts teaching experience in both countries, most recently at the University of Stellenbosch, where he has been appointed an "Extraordinary Professor".  Research interests and publications have examined the intersection of culture and identity.

Currently, Dr. Laubscher is one of the principal researchers in an expansive international study that seeks to archive and analyze memories of Apartheid experiences.  He is also interested in the works of the philosophers Jacques Derrida and Emmanuel Levinas, and the possible implications of those thinkers' thoughts for psychology.
