I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with 15 years experience working as a psychotherapist and life coach. I work with a variety of concerns including trauma, addiction, body image and weight loss issues, relationship issues, and life purpose. I have also worked with many people recovering from mass traumas, such as school shootings.
I have presented at International conferences and written 25 continuing education courses for psychotherapists. My goal is always to identify ways the practice of psychotherapy can be improved, and find new and innovative ways clinicians can help their clients.
In my free time, I enjoy ultrarunning, bringing my three rescue horses up the levels in dressage and completing a long overdue manuscript.
I believe in empowering my clients, treating them with respect, and honoring their life choices. I believe that the keys to improved mental health and happiness exist inside every client. My approach is existential in nature, and looks to help people find what is truly most important to them, and move in that direction. Together, I believe we can find a way to a fulfilling, rewarding, and meaningful life - regardless of what life has put you through.
I look forward to working with you!

Claire is amazing. This is my first time trying therapy and Claire gave me everything I wanted to get out from this. I would recommend Claire to anyone who has had the misfortune of dealing with a narcissist, anyone who is going through addiction, family trauma… etc she made me feel seen. She made me feel heard and she validated my reality and experiences but most importantly she has given me tools I need to deal with experiences and has always asked the right questions to help me shift my mindset to address the root of my issues. Thank you, Claire for all of your help!

Claire is amazing. She hears me and pushes me to grow. She both flows from session to session, topic to topic, with me but also points out major themes.

Claire was very helpful and understanding during our calls. She was personable and listened to me helping me feel heard and validating me. She also helped bring up good questions and thoughts to challenge my beliefs. I would suggest her for anyone looking for a supportive and open therapist.

I feel like Claire really listens to me, but doesn’t take it easy on me or let me make excuses. She has really given me a lot of insight into myself that spans so many facets of my life.

Claire gets it. I go into a session and come out knowing something about myself that I never thought of or having tools to deal with my issues that are just amazing. She is creative when it comes to trying to find ways to help you solve your issues and always gives you somethimg to think about throughout the week. It feels like an active recovery process and she definitely pushed me out of the victim role into the role of taking back my life. "I am the author of my story". Thank you.

Claire is the down-to-earth and empathetic person I needed at this stage of my life--starting therapy was daunting for me, but she helped me through my initial trepidation and has been an invaluable resource for day to day coping.

Claire is really lovely to speak with. She notes down important concerns that are discussed and readdresses them at an appropriate time, this has helped me to start working through some issues. She listens, is patient and kind. She has a non judgmental but straightforward approach which I really appreciate.
