Meet Claire

Cancer survivor, divorced, widowed, etc… Our “loss” story paints a picture of what has happened for each of us, what is important. Sometimes, a story can get stuck and we hide behind it. Other times, a story can change and renew us. It is my hope that by sharing my “story” and what I learned from it, I will inspire you to realize that you too can change your grief “story”.

23 years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 bone cancer. I beat the 80% odds to find myself without a roadmap of how to be cancer free and HAPPY. I spent the next few decades living a goal-oriented life. I made six-figures in corporate world, life looked great on paper, but inside, I felt EMPTY.

A defining moment in my life came when my dog died unexpectedly. Sophie was more than a mere companion, she was my confidant, friend, family. Grieving deeply, I walked away from it all. My parents and friends thought I was CRAZY. Grieving, I created a company called Luxepets, to celebrate the bond between people and pets.  

Internally, I began on a spiritual quest to transform my losses into happiness. A voice kept saying do your grieving, heal, teach. I answered the call, receiving training in several highly effective therapies including Reality Therapy, Gestalt, NLP, RET, Person Centered Therapy and Psychosynthesis. I completed a Masters Degree in S. Psychology (University of Santa Monica), certification from The Association of Pet Loss and Bereavement, certification for Group Bereavement Facilitation and Level II Reiki coursework.

In doing all of this work, I felt freedom and possibilities for the first time in my life. I felt a peace inside. I had finally released and let go of decades of loss. 

My personal loss experiences helps me connect with my clients on a deep authentic level. It does not define me. In letting go of my “loss” story, it has freed me to step up to my potential. I overcame infertility to conceive naturally. The same week I found out I was pregnant, my mother committed suicide. 9 months later, my daughter began having life threatening seizures. A year later, a turbulent marriage came to completion. I moved through my grief with the same real-world tools I use today.

Today, I assist others who experienced a loss heal and let go of their story. I provide practical, proven techniques that provides relief from unresolved grief immediately.

The result?

Heal and integrate your grief. Live a life of happiness you deserve.
