Claire Riordan, MA

Associate Clinician

Accepting new clients.

Claire (she/her) is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oregon, and recently relocated to Vermont. She has a Master’s in Professional Mental Health Counseling from Lewis and Clark College. Before becoming a counselor, Claire studied politics and worked in nonprofits at the intersection of education and racial justice.

Claire enjoys working with older teens and young adults, and has experience working with adults of all ages. She specializes in supporting people with disabilities and chronic illness, queer and trans clients, and non-monogamous individuals. Her clients are often navigating anxiety, mood challenges, PTSD or trauma, identity questions, big life transitions, and living in a world full of unjust systems.

In therapy, Claire prioritizes building a strong relationship and collaborative partnership with her clients. Claire often utilizes dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) alongside other modalities, including ACT and mindfulness and somatic based practices.

Claire is legally blind, and has a personal background in disability justice and activism. Outside of work, you might find her rereading Harry Potter, baking and eating desserts, or spending time walking in the woods or near the water.

Claire accepts Medicaid, MVP, BCBS, and Cigna
