“My life before life balance sessions with Claire.....it was like a tilted tree with multiple fallen branches all around. I was barely hanging on. I had just moved out of a rather toxic situation at home AND at work. I didn’t know what to do. I felt helpless. That was until I started meeting with Claire. I work full time, I go to school full time, I have my pets and I live by myself. Life gets rough. I don’t have much of a support system but she became my lifeline to create my own support system outside of our sessions. She listens and she guides you through self reflection and self care. Self care: two measly words that hold a lot of meaning. Little did I know how necessary this truly is. I always recommend Claire to all my coworkers. I don’t know if she realizes the many lives she has touched at the veterinary hospital I work at.”

It's been so helpful to have a listening ear as an outside influence. Sometimes, it's hard to accept the advice friends/colleague give as they know me. I really appreciate having an external resource that is not part of the veterinary hospital. Claire listens profoundly and has been able to help me identify tools I can use tactically in and outside of work. It has helped me deescalate the stress that comes from being in a fast-paced giving profession. Each time we have a life balance session, I walk away with another objective perspective I hadn't thought of before. Her support is a good reminder for opportunities that lies ahead and ways to focus on what I want to create.

In my life balance sessions, I can talk to Claire about personal and work challenges. It helps to have a sounding board with someone who knows about the veterinary field, what we go through, the caseloads, the ins and outs of the culture, so I don't have to explain. When you are worried about fears, she can put into perspective what could happen and what actually might happen. Claire gets you to think about things differently and focus on things differently.
