The platform provides two distinct services: Claudie@liveliketheriver — depth psychology, healing and self-exploration; and Claudie@coach — coaching for career, performance, business, and life transitions. Both are powered by Anthropic's AI technology and trained under a proprietary methodology developed by Claudia Vesel.

All intellectual property rights — including but not limited to the book, methodology, system prompts, platform architecture, and all written content — belong exclusively to Claudia Vesel. ONE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS S.R.L. operates liveliketheriver.com and the associated mobile applications under license. No content may be reproduced, distributed, or used without the express written consent of the author.

1.6 Member Conduct

By registering, members agree to engage with respect — toward themselves and toward this space. Repeated violations of this principle may result in account suspension or cancellation, according to the three-strike moderation system described at registration.

1.7 Limitation of Liability

The service offered by liveliketheriver.com and the associated mobile applications does not constitute psychotherapy, psychological counselling, or medical service.

If your process calls for a therapist, a doctor, or another professional — follow that call.
