I am honored to be here for you! Mission: The mission of Authentic Reflections is wrapped into one word-healing! Values A-Z: Authenticity, Balance, Courage, Diligence, Effort, Faith, Giving Back, Humor, Interconnectedness, Justice, Kindness, Love, Motivation, Nature vs Nurture, Openness, Peace, Quality, Respect, Success, Trust, Uniqueness, Virtue, Wisdom, Xenial, Youthfulness, Zeal Favorite Quotes: "Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it." - Maya Angelou "I do not think the measure of a civilization is how tall its buildings of concrete are, but rather how well its people have learned to relate to their environment and fellow man." - Sun Bear, Chippewa “The ultimate goal of therapy… it’s too hard a question. The words come to me like tranquility, like fulfillment, like realizing your potential.” – Irvin D. Yalom
