hi there, clara here.


 

I live in the Hudson Valley with my husband, our son, and two very lovable, but hairy, dogs. When I’m not working with clients, recording a podcast, or writing for my newsletter, I’m either curled up with my latest stack from the library, hanging in the living room listening to a record with my husband, or snuggling our little one. Say hello anytime, I’d love to hear from you.

BACKGROUND

I hold a B.A. in Philosophy with honors from Johns Hopkins University, with a concentration in Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies. I received her life coaching training through the Coaches Training Institute and health coaching training through the Nutritional Therapy Association.

I’ve spent the last 15+ years studying personal growth and relationships. My approach with my clients reflects a blend of my own modalities, developed by way of my studies, combined with ongoing research and education.

 

 After working with over individual women and couples for six years, I’ve found time and again, the more we came back to ourselves, the more ease and connection we find with others.

To build such a deep understanding of who we are and how we operate.
To reclaim the joy and the beauty of relationships and dating and in doing so, reconnect to the joy and beauty within ourselves.
To interact with the world with a spirit of honesty, vulnerability, imperfection and bravery.

If you want to understand how I think about this work…

 

 “The challenges of finding love are highly complex, seldom systematically explored, and relatively new.”

-Alain de Botton
