Delightful possibility...In every encounter with Claire, I take away a feeling of possibility — and a big shift in the way I approach things.
Claire just has a perspective of delightful possibility and openness and she brings that to everything she does, and that perspective bubbles out, washes over and infects (in a good way) everyone around her. When you see a photos of her, you'll see she's almost always smiling. And that's her. That is genuine Claire. Open, always looking for delight and ease, and by her example and experience, she gently nudges those of us around her to try that very same way of being on for size. Deb Cooperman Living Out Loud Chatham, NJ Transformative & playful...What I got from working with Claire was I learned to consciously MOVE! if I feel stuck or blocked. Just move a little! Swing my arms, my hips, my head — do a little dance! This seems so ridiculously simple, but it has been transformative.
I've learned to recognize when I start pulling my ‘ceiling’ down. And why not make it easy? Remarkable what a difference that makes! Claire helps me examine myself, my goals and 'perceived' obstacles without worry or judgment. Just looking to see what's there and how to arrange the pieces in a fun, pretty way -- like a collage or quilt or painting! I learned that I’m a work of art, not a construction project!! Whoo-hooo! Kathleen Reynolds Editor, Edible New Jersey Emmaus, PA Jolt of joy...Claire! I always feel a jolt of joy when in contact with you in any form. You are an Engaging Connector. An Inviting Reacher-Outer. A Sweet and Sensuous Aliveness Flyer. A Joy Igniter. An Infectious Creator.
Mary Tebbs Salt Lake City, UT Strong bonds...Claire is great at getting you to see "what can be" if your self-imposed limitations are eliminated.
Through our group, I was able to elevate my business and my life to another level. The bonds formed with members of my group are still strong today, seven years later. Maria Semple Bridgewater, NJ I've transformed my life...My life has changed for the better in every aspect. She has inspired me to create a life that I love.
After taking classes with Claire, I feel that I can be by myself and love myself under all circumstances. I have learned to listen to my intuition and not be afraid of what it was telling me. I now have the ability to really slow down and feel my body to determine what I’m actually feeling as opposed to a knee-jerk reaction. Claire has an amazing ability to actually hear and feel what you are saying not just the words coming out of your mouth. Renee Sopko Milford, NJ Wholesome wellness...Claire gently, really very lightly, inspires me with a bubbly, champagne-like wholesome wellness.
Celeste Vermette Ottawa, Canada I feel alive...The things I learned with Claire were a full-body experience beyond any words or theories I could wrap my brain around. I feel alive with lots of energy.

Explore, play, expand, love...I LOVE PLAYING WITH YOU, Claire!
You are a beautiful example of someone who lives life heart first, mind second. You ARE the space to explore, play, expand, love. Big kisses to you -- XXXXXX! Linda Wellenbach Hilton Head Island, SC Safety, ease & discovery...Ginny Blasi, Belmar, NJ
Claire is all about freeing the joy and creativity. I feel safe and real with her, and like she gets me! After working with her, I always feel more like me!
She’s like a life whisperer. Claire has a wonderful way of reframing a situation, thought or "problem", which takes me to a place where I can move through it. Working with Claire is like unwrapping a present. The process is where the joy is. Each layer becomes more of a joyful discovery. Lots of ooh-ing and ahhh-ing and admiring of the paper and bow and all the layers. Trust & fun...Michelle Hess, Mount Horeb, WI
Working with Claire has had quite an impact on my life. She showed me how to be more free-spirited and daring; to be more organic in my approach to life, to art, to my home, letting one thing lead to the next, trusting and having FUN with it.
What I've learned is to relax into the process and let each step guide me. It's one of the best lessons I've had in a long time. Remembering myself deeply...Exploring with Claire, I felt like I was remembering myself in a really deep, easy way for the first time and it also felt like being reminded of thousands-of-years-old wisdom and things that I've always felt were true, yet synthesized in a new way.
Jenny Botman London, England Contagious love...There is an unbridled enthusiasm, lightness of touch, and great love that is evident in your approach that I find contagious.
Sheila Patterson Glasgow, Scotland Nourishes my spirit...Pam Chamberlain, Stockton, NJ
I am on this journey to learn, and Claire has been a soulful, loving teacher and guide. I've participated in several of her programs.
It’s hard to put Claire into a few words, but she is like a soft, whispering hum filling a room and tickling and nourishing its spirit and everyone in it. Collaborative support...The biggest benefit I got from working with Claire was a deeper understanding of how my mind and body are connected and the deep "knowing" that my body possesses. I relished the genuine, extremely positive energy and support for all of my endeavors, dreams and passions.
What I love is that I feel kindred with her and she approaches our time together with a spirit of learning and collaborating together. I feel for the first time absolutely supported on all fronts as I get as I transform my life. Claire is a genuine, deeply positive and supportive person that enjoys life fully and wants to help others enjoy it as much as possible as well. She radiates a healing and loving energy that is infectious and refreshing. She's an inspiration to work with. Katie Haverly Singer/Songwriter Tucson, AZ Connection joyride...Working with Claire has been a joyride through insight, kindness, intuitiveness, humor, and true connection.
Carolyn Freeman Tucson, AZ Genius bubbling...I find Claire's genius bubbling in whatever she touches — it reaches everywhere.
