Where in the world is Barb?

Hello friends and strangers!  I am living in Strabane, County Tyrone, in Northern Ireland. Strabane sits at the confluence of two rivers right on the border with the Republic of Ireland, equidistant between Derry/Londonderry and Omagh. This is my last semester of graduate school and I’m doing my final field placement here with a non-profit agency called the Koram Centre. The cast of characters are:    Barb  {Masters of Science in Social Work student on her final placement};   Jeff {Director at the Koram Centre, the supervisor whom I’m working immediately under};   Marina {Contracted Clinical Director of the Koram Centre, my clinical supervisor}; and    Mary Anne {Long-term volunteer at Corrymeela, my American social work supervisor} –    Yes, that means I am juggling three supervisors…!     Read about the work I’m doing.
