JANE WORK, Gestalt Therapist

Unexpectedly widowed at age 48, Jane Work entered college during the height of the Vietnam War and went from being a conservative Midwestern housewife to a liberal feminist. She earned a bachelor's degree at age 50 and a doctorate in psychology seven years later. At age 63, after working for various state agencies and school systems, she opened up a private practice. Thirty years after getting licensed, she still sees occasional clients and holds workshops at the retirement home where she now resides.
