Areas of professional expertise
- Supportive Guidance
- Personal growth
- Emotional centering
- Interpersonal Relationships
Since 2008 I have been working in a professional capacity guiding and supporting my clients. I have seen amazing transformations. Clients of mine have made major life decisions and found themselves happier and with new lives. I had a client who was a jewlery designer call a range of her necklaces after me. She called the range 'Erin Clair.' Another dedicated her book to me after my support and encouragement with her through her that part of her life journey. She later sold the Hollywood film rights! Another credits me with her promotion to senior director in a blue chip multinational. Another for her emigration from New York to Amsterdam where she is now so much happier. Dozens of stories like this and so it has been, and continues to be, very rewarding work and I love it.
I'm enthusiastic daily. You will find me to be understanding, supportive and fully engaged. The attitude when working with me is optimistic and the approach is goal oriented. I absolutely believe in the potential for positive change and that the power lays within my clients to do just that.
