Claire has a unique way of being empathetic with others' sorrow and suffering and the guidance she provides come from the core of her heart. She helped me tremendously during the loss of my best friend and the weeks thereafter in my grief process. I can’t recommend Claire enough for her positive, proactive approach and this program has helped me make peace with my loss and re-build my life.
