About Me

My name is Claire Schrader, and I am living proof that an introvert need not live on the sidelines

My name is Claire Schrader, and I am living proof that an introvert need not live on the sidelines

I started out in life as the proverbial wallflower – until I hit upon a way to break out of my shell, overcome shyness and social anxiety and acquire some of the skills that extroverted people naturally have.

I developed The Sunflower Effect®, a highly effective confidence-building system using an adapted form of drama that outstrips traditional methods. These personal development courses have been transforming the lives of quiet, shy and socially anxious people since 1997.

Personal Development Courses that have changed lives

First ever programme that actually brought about a change in me

I  had been suffering from social anxiety from a very young age. I had tried CBT, anger management therapy, hypnotherapy, past life regression therapy and went to see many psychologists but nothing really helped me.

The change and progress I made through the Breakthrough Course was absolutely priceless. 

This was the first ever personal development course that actually managed to bring about a change in me unlike every single other therapy programme that I had joined before.

Stefan Baumann, student

By the end of the course I could really tell I’d made a massive shift

Before the group started I was very anxious.

I was wrestling with the desire to stay safe and invisible vs the desire to break out and fully participate in life.

I feel like I’m a lot more authentic and accepting of myself with less feelings of being inferior and needing to hide my true self.

By the end of the course I could really tell I’d made a massive shift.

For me this course truly was a lifeline.

One of the most effective ways to manage my anxiety

Having tried multiple variations of therapy, most of which came at a very high price, I found Claire, the course and the group, one of the most effective ways to help manage my anxiety.

I find myself now, much more confident in trusting my instinct and knowing what to say…

It’s been 20 years of dealing with a common thread of negative self talk so thank you Claire, for helping me shift something that once seemed impossible.
