Claire graduated with a Bachelor of Visual Arts from Western University in London, Ontario.
After witnessing her brother recover from a traumatic brain injury, Claire was inspired to pursue
a career in Art Therapy where she is currently a graduating student in the Toronto Art Therapy
Institute (TATI) program. Claire first found her passion for the arts at a young age and through
her own personal experiences was amazed at the power of using visual arts as a therapeutic and
healing experience.
Claire has a deep desire to expand her knowledge of art therapy through dedicating herself to
serving others. She believes that visual arts give meaning to everyday experiences that simply
cannot be put into words and wishes to empower you with the voice of empathy. Claire is
determined to improve your problem-solving skills, self-esteem and mental well-being through a
variety of visual mediums.
Claire grew up in London, Ontario before moving to Port Elgin and enjoys spending time with
family soaking in sunsets at the beach. In her spare time, Claire can be found in her studio using
acrylics, ink and charcoal materials to define the abstract of nature and the human form. She also
has a passion for the outdoors and can be seen on the many hiking trails within Bruce County
with her dog Nala.
