Along with the increased knowledge, resources, credentials and job 
opportunties, getting a doctorate takes a pursuer into meeting a host of many 
professionals in many fields and places personally that the pursuer would never have 
been able to do prior.  And that alone is almost worth the whole price of the 
doctorate.

Best wishes.

Hello to all,

I have been contemplating pursuing a doctorate degree for a while and 
have been investigating several programs, particularly those 
self-directed such as Union and now Lesley.  I wanted to ask those of 
you who have doctorate degrees what area they are in ( I've seen 
everything from education, medical DMT, psychology, etc. to more obscure 
titles), as well as to what has been most useful.  Among my consulting 
jobs, I have been teaching in a university setting (yoga as well as 
guesting in the psychology department under DMT), but in order to be 
tenure-tracked I will need a doctorate.  I also believe it can lend a 
lot of credibility to what I do, but I am putting this question out to 
all of you.  As many of you know, I do have two small children so I am 
looking for flexibility in working this through.

Thanks for any responses.  You can email privately, or if you have 
information that will benefit the greater membership for discussion, 
please reply that way.

Best,
Lauri
