    - Stephanie Singer, founder and Creative Director of BitterSuite

  • "I attended Clare's workshop on coping with academic stressors while working as a researcher on a fixed-term contract within a big university. The demands and expectations of my role and sourcing future research funding weighed heavily on me, so learning about Clare's well-thought out coping strategies and her active encouragement to think outside the box was so helpful to my personal development and my wellbeing."

    - Dr Emma Ferguson-Coleman, Lecturer in Dementia and Ageing, GIAM, University of West London

  • “Clare brings a wealth of experience to her workshops and sessions but what comes through the most is that she cares about people. Her focus on your experience and wellbeing as a researcher is refreshing and stands out in what can be a very competitive and outcomes-focussed area.”
