Hi, I’m Caralyn Dreyer. I’m a survivor—of trauma, including sexual assault, domestic violence, and a suicide attempt—and a person who is still healing and growing every day.

I hold a Master’s degree in Forensic Psychology and a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Psychology, which has equipped me with both professional knowledge and a deep understanding of human behavior. It has certainly helped me gain a deeper understanding of my own healing process.

As a freelance writer, researcher, and blogger, I use my voice to share insights on mental health, personal growth, and the healing process.
I am also a fierce advocate for mental health awareness, as I live with anxiety and depression. I face the challenges they bring each day and am sharing those experiences with others.
Make sure to check out my mental health blog, Darkness to Dialogue: Living Well with Mental Illness.

My mission is to share my story and experiences to offer support, hope, and inspiration. My goal is to empower others—especially those who are struggling—to navigate their pain, find their strength, and ultimately discover their own voice. It’s important for everyone struggling to know that they are not alone.
