Specialties

Canine behavior counseling and training. We work with cats too! Covering all five boroughs and Long Island.

History

Established in 2008.

She received her MA in Psychology and a Certification in the Advanced Psychology of Animal Behavior and Conservation, and is registered with the New York State Education Department. Her philosophy is grounded in an understanding of human and non-​human animals and applies psychological, ecological and evolutionary principles that relate to social behavior, cognitive processes, learning, experience and ontogeny, cultural activity, communication, and the interdependence of physiological and psychological processes. In short, Claire stresses the role humans have in training and modifying their animal’s behavior and works to strengthen the bond between pets and their human families.
