"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."
"As I sat in your office the first day of the mentoring program, that quote caught my eye. Little did I know how many times my breath would be taken away over the next five days. Don, you have opened my eyes both professionally as well as personally--I needed mentoring on my touch to feel the CSR as well as my fear of the daunting SER. I left on Friday feeling like I know how to "think" with my fingers as well as an understanding that I do not control a SER. I am there to mirror and ensure my patient is feeling safe and non-judged. Thank you."

"It was everything I had hoped it would be. The week was like a dream to me being involved in one fascinating and moving session after another."
"I got to see my strengths and areas to strengthen. I felt supported and 'at home.'"
"I feel I can open up to the clients now because I am so much more confident."
"Thank you so much, I have been touched to the core of my soul."

The Mentor Mission
"I realize if the student is dedicated enough to invest this time, money and effort in trying to better themselves and refine their skills, then I must dedicate myself to the student for the time we have together. I promise to give you my undivided attention, and share all that I know as well as help you honor and refine what you know. Together we can share clinical experiences at my office and grow together. I want every student to have all their clinical questions answered from technique to scheduling. My goal is to have every student leave confident, competent and refreshed in the wonder and adventures of CST." --Don
