Bethanne's Story
Life
Quite a lot has happened since I left good old Washington High School. After graduating and completing business school, I was married to a person I met at the business school. We were married for 13 years (together for 10) and I had 2 children, Jamie and Ben. I met my present spouse (John Jacobson) through a Parents Without Partners Meeting, and my life has never been the same since. We were married in 1982 at which time I acquired to additional children, Soren and Mark. I returned to school to obtain my bachelors degree in Economics at Washington and Jefferson College, graduating in 1985. I worked as an accountant and did some teaching, but in 1988, we opened a winery in Washington which became my full time job. We sold it several years later after taking a short sabbatical to Arkansas. I worked for several years in the mental health field and continued, over the years, to get my Masters in Rehabilitation Counseling (199...Expand for more

Tragically, my stepson Mark was killed in January of 2002 in a skiing accident. With the kids grown and out on their own, my spouse has semi retired and we are now living in New Bern, North Carolina. I am in private practice working primarily with adult women. My spouse owns a kayak outfitting shop on the water. North Carolina is a wonderful place to live and we love being by the water. In addition to starting my work as a psychologist, I spend my free time kayaking, sailing, and just enjoying life on the water. Since my mother has passed away, I doubt that I'll get back to Washington very often even though my brother still lives there. I now call New Bern my home...love the people, the laid back life style, and best of all NO SNOW!.
