| My son and I moved to W. PA for me to do an internship at W. VA U. in Morgantown. (My daughter was at W. WA U.) I completed my dissertation on dreams, personality types and affect during that internship year - the final requirement for my PhD in Educational and Counseling Psychology. |

| From PA we moved to SD. The offered job fell through. There we were — with a lease, knee-deep in debt — and no job. We couldn’t afford to stay and we couldn’t afford to go. I pieced together jobs — counseling and nursing. Eventually I worked 6 different jobs + driving at least 20 hrs./wk. It was a wonderful learning experience but it took its toll on me, especially physically. |

| In March 1998 my daughter and her husband adopted their first child from Viet Nam. I flew to Seattle to help. At the end of that week, I stood at the airport holding this precious baby boy and wondered, "Why am I going back to SD? All that matters is right here." (My son was then a student at Western WA U.) |
|
| By July, I closed my practice in SD, sold my home, finished contracts, and moved to Seattle. In October 2001, I flew with my daughter’s family to Viet Nam to get their second child, another boy. That trip was fantastic. I dream of returning Viet Nam. The people are beautiful and welcoming; the country beautiful. |
| All this brings me to the present. I have a counseling practice in Bothell, WA. I use Jungian therapy, hypnosis and most of all, dream work to help clients on their journey of Self-discovery. Each person is important, each story unique, each path comprised of wrong turnings and fateful detours. |
