A Note From Dr. Walden About Stress
Right now, Summer 2021, more than ever, take care of yourself. Take care of yourself or you cannot write and finish this coveted degree. Stress is a killer for a doctoral candidate. Figure out a way to make it through the next few weeks. Do whatever you must maintain some sort of normalcy for you and your family. Worrying will not help. I plan to continue taking care of myself and my furry little menagerie as best I can.
Here is how I plan to take care of myself: I will continue to use soft music, green teas, crystals, salt lamps, chakras, incense, sage, lavender, essential oils, reflexology, Reiki, keep all my favorite things close, and use massage to keep my body and mind calm, stress free and relaxed so I can write and work. I will try to eat right and sleep soundly.
I have listed a few methods I employ to relieve my stress and anxiety. Although I realize not everyone will want to embrace all these, maybe you will find one just right for you. What is my favorite way to relax? My family, good friends, and my furry babies.
Please take care yourself. Stay strong. You will come through this.

A Note from Dr. Annette Coletta
Licensed Professional Counselor
Research attests to stresses induced by pursuing higher education. Relationships are often stressed when family, friends, and those in the workplace do not understand what we have undertaken as PhD learners and candidates. Often, we are not even certain about what we have signed up for! A layer that invariably creates further stress is when life happens. It feels overwhelming and isolating to pursue a PhD. Yet, you are not alone. People are available to talk to about this: people who have been through it and who can understand you and support you through the dissertation maze or life after a PhD. I am one of those people:

My goal is to help everyone to overcome this or her own limitations; empowerment is the best description. I have worked with people since I can remember to help them overcome whatever their issue. Now with Reiki, I can reach deeper; I can teach everyone to do self-Reiki on daily basis and overcome their life issues. I am not promising anything, the results are greatly individualized based on each person's level of involvement and life story. There are those who need to work longer than others versus those who would see results right away.

Toni Williams, Editor
My editing career began more than 20 years ago at Academic Press (now Elsevier Science), and after I began freelancing, I expanded my services to include several corporate clients and publishing houses (including Sage Publications, Corwin Press, Duke University Press, Cambridge University Press, and IEEE). I have an MBA in International Business — Pacific Basin Studies from Dominican University of California and a bachelor’s degree from Mills College..
I love editing, and I am an expert in APA style! I have edited well over 1,000 dissertations for almost 80 universities and thousands of academic (peer-reviewed) journal articles and books in social science, health care, psychology, education, economics, mathematics, computer science, and physical science.
I love helping authors get their point across to their readers more effectively, and I work with people who live all over the world. I am very comfortable working with people for whom English is not their native language. My editing services include a very detailed review of a document to ensure (a) concise writing, (b) correct grammar, (c) clarity, and (d) consistency.
