Claire Harris Kramer

Claire earned her Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Tennessee and Master of Divinity from Vanderbilt University. Claire is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She is trained in Level 1 EMDR Therapy and is a member of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW).

Claire is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) with over a decade of ministry experience, including extensive work in pastoral care with both teenagers and adults. Her work as a hospice social worker has deepened her understanding of serious illness, end-of-life care, and the complexities of family support during times of loss. She has also worked in group practice settings, supporting individuals through depression, perinatal mood disorders, family conflict, and spiritual identity questions.

Claire’s clinical focus includes religious trauma, EMDR for trauma recovery, pregnancy and postpartum mental health, chronic illness, and support for LGBTQIA+ clients. She integrates traditional counseling with trauma-informed tools, helping clients gain insight into their patterns, reclaim emotional safety, and move toward healing and peace.

Claire is passionate about creating a space where each client feels safe, understood, and empowered to heal with self-compassion. In your first session with Claire, you'll create goals together to support your healing.
