I don’t love talking about myself.
But sometimes context matters.
I’m Corinne. For nearly a decade I worked inside the traditional mental health and recovery system, as an internationally certified substance abuse counselor, sitting with people in some of the most pivotal moments of their lives.
I respect that world deeply. It saves lives. It shows up when nothing else can.
But after long enough inside any system, you start noticing what it doesn’t ask.
It rarely gets curious about the magnificent thing underneath. The essence. The person who existed before the diagnoses, the coping mechanisms, the survival strategies that got them through but stopped fitting somewhere along the way.
I kept coming back to one question:
Who were you before the world told you who you were supposed to be?
That question eventually became Siren of Serenity.
I’ve also been a doula. A patient advocate. Someone who has spent her whole life showing up at the threshold moments: birth, crisis, recovery, transformation, and walking alongside people through them.
What I’ve learned from all of it is this:
People are not problems to solve. They’re not profiles or diagnoses or collections of symptoms.
They’re much closer to pieces of art.
And the most interesting thing about a person is never what went wrong.
It’s what’s possible.
I took five years away from formal practice to raise my littles, the best decision I’ve ever made and one I’d make again without hesitation. I came back to this work with more clarity than I’ve ever had about what I’m actually here to do.
Not to fix anyone.
To walk beside them while they remember who they are.
Want to explore what that looks like for you?
WHAT I DO
Most people who find their way here aren’t broken.
They’re ready.
Ready to move past the version of themselves that was built for surviving and into the one that’s built for actually living. Ready to trade autopilot for something that feels genuinely, unmistakably theirs.
What they’re missing isn’t more insight or another framework or someone else’s roadmap.
It’s access.
Access to their own knowing. Their own clarity. The part of themselves that’s been quietly, patiently waiting underneath all the noise.
My job is to create the conditions where that part can finally be heard.
Not through more analysis.
Not by handing you answers.
But through real questions, creative and embodied work that moves what thinking alone can’t reach, and the kind of genuine witnessing that changes how you see yourself.
Here’s what I’ve watched happen when people get those conditions:
They don’t just feel better. They come alive. They make decisions from a place they forgot existed. They find themselves doing things they’d talked about for years and wondering why it suddenly feels easy.
That’s not magic. That’s what happens when a person finally has the right room.
