Testimonials
These are just a few of the good words clients use to describe their experience with Claire.
"When I first started seeing Claire for career counseling, I thought that I would take a bunch of aptitude tests and that would point me in the right direction. What I didn't realize was that I had emotional and psychological blocks that were going to prevent me from moving forward regardless of what those tests said. Claire's insightful, holistic, low-key, but persistent counseling approach helped me to see that and gave me the tools that I needed to transform my way of thinking about my self and my career potential. Working with Claire has literally changed not just my career but my life for the better."
"Life changing," that's how I'd describe my experience with Claire. Not only has she provided the tools and interpretation to help me discover an exciting new career that fits my personality, interests, and values; she has actively supported my transition every step of the way. She has an excellent knowledge of the college application/interview process that enabled her to offer invaluable feedback that landed me a spot in medical school. I'm thrilled about my future. I've wasted too much of my precious time chasing someone else's dreams for me. Now, I'm fulfilling the pursuit of my own desires!!!
There’s no doubt that the evaluation process gave me a new perspective. Claire helped me see my strengths and understand my “personality type” in order to set new goals and work towards a career that felt right. With her guidance, I have been able to hone my skill-set and simultaneously tackle personal hurdles that have, in some cases, troubled me for years. I can say confidently, Claire Miner has given me a new life!
When I came to Claire, I'd just been denied tenure, which was devastating: being an academic had been a huge part of my sense of who I was. Claire helped me see that I could find meaningful work outside the ivory tower - and that there were actually better matches out there for my strengths and needs. She was immensely helpful on a practical level, too, helping me tailor resumes and cover letters, encouraging me to take advantage of my network, and making her own connections available to me.
