I began to have dreams and experiences that pointed me towards Jung (particularly the workshop \u201cFinding God in the Unconscious\u201d at the Jung Hotel in New Orleans!). Discovering Harry Wilmer, the only Jungian analyst in Texas, I began analysis and training. I practiced sandplay and visual art with Joan Buresh in Santa Fe, and through a dream was called to India and Siddha Yoga. The story of my life subsequently has been the interface between Jungian psychology and spiritual practice.\r\n\r\nI married Al Collins and moved to Alaska, where our two children (an artist and a religion scholar) were raised, joining the Chicago Institute in 2009. I\u2019m especially drawn to transformation of personality through Jungian and spiritual practices, and often use art and sandplay with adults, children, and teens.\r\n\r\n<b><u>Education<\/u><\/b>\r\nB.S. in Psychology: University of Illinois, Chicago (1968)\r\nM.S.W. in Clinical Social Work: University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (1970)\r\nDiplomate in Clinical Social Work\r\n\r\n<b><u>Professional Organizations<\/u><\/b>\r\nInternational Association of Analytical Psychology\r\nC.G.
