Rachel Riordan, LGPC
LICENSED GRADUATE PROFESSIONAL COUNSELOR

BIO
Hello, I’m Rachel – a Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor practicing in Maryland. I began my career working in a residential treatment setting, where I witnessed the incredible strength people carry through life’s challenges. That experience fueled my passion for mental health and led me to complete my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.
​
I specialize in working with young adults and adults who are experiencing anxiety, navigating relationship stress, or feeling overwhelmed by major life transitions. Whether you’re figuring out who you are, managing academic or career pressure, or struggling with self-doubt, I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen and supported. I also work with children and adolescents, especially those facing emotional or behavioral challenges at home or school.
My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence‑based methods. Depending on your needs, we might use cognitive‑behavioral strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts, family‑systems work to improve communication, motivational interviewing to support recovery, or acceptance‑and‑commitment techniques to help you live in alignment with your values. I’ll explain these tools in plain language so you understand how they can help you.
​
I believe that recovery and growth are possible for every person and every family. I’ve seen individuals find their voices, children thrive when given support in school, and parents rebuild trust after addiction. Being a witness to this resilience is what fuels me.
​
Outside of the office you might find me on a volleyball court, behind a camera, hiking a nearby trail or planning my next travel adventure. Spending time with my family and friends keeps me grounded and reminds me that we all need connection.
