Caelyn N. Nordman, M.A., Master’s Level Clinician

Childhood and adolescence are deeply impactful stages of life, often filled with complex challenges and transitions. When mental health difficulties are added to the mix, these years can feel even more overwhelming. In session, I strive to balance processing the hard parts of growing up with building practical skills that help guide clients toward independence and success.

I primarily work with youth navigating mood and developmental disorders such as depression, anxiety, and autism. I also have specialized training in treating emetophobia, illness/health anxiety, trauma/PTSD, and OCD in children and teens. My approach is collaborative and solution-focused, drawing from evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Play Therapy.

I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Boston College and completed my clinical internship at a school-based health center, where I deepened my passion for working with youth. I am also actively involved in research focused on improving mental health outcomes for Sexual and Gender Minority Youth (SGMY). I’ve received specialized training in Gender-Affirming Psychotherapy and am committed to helping transgender and nonbinary youth and adults access affirming, competent care.

At Clearview, we believe in supporting the entire family system. It’s not uncommon for my child and teen clients to work with me while their parents or caregivers meet with Jayme or Mary for parent coaching support. Treatment plans are tailored to each child and family’s unique needs—so whether you’re looking for collaborative care, skill-building, or simply a space to be authentically you, I’m here to support you through that process.

Interests and hobbies:

A barista by training, I love all things coffee. Ask me for recommendations before your next coffee order! I am also deeply passionate about literature and storytelling, and I encourage my clients to engage in self-exploration through reading or writing (as I do myself!). On days when I am not working, you can find me curled up with my two cats and a romance, thriller, or fiction novel. My current recommendations include: Spark of the Everflame by Penn Cole, Notes on an Execution by Danya Kukafka, and If We Were Villains by M. L. Rio.
