Speaker of Wisdom. Witness of Healing. Weaver of Story and Soul.

Welcome — I’m Karie, the voice and heart behind The Phoenix Writes.

I am the Phoenix who writes.
The Alchemist who listens. The Guide who walks beside.
Through poetry, intuitive reflection, storytelling, energy-based support, and compassionate space-holding, I support those rising from the ashes of their lived experience — longing to return to themselves, one breath and one word at a time.

This is not just a platform.
It’s a sanctuary for soul-deep restoration.
A quiet place to sit by the fire.
A space to honour your in-between — beneath the noise, beyond the ache, and inside the story only you can live.

My Journey

For as long as I can remember, I’ve found healing through words.

I’ve walked the paths of therapist, guide, teacher, leader, and writer. I’ve held grief in both hands and sat gently with others in their own undoing. I’ve witnessed the slow, brave return of self to self — and the small sparks that signal something new is beginning.

My work draws on both formal training and lived experience. It is grounded in psychology and psychotherapy, shaped by my work in trauma, energy awareness, nervous system regulation, and soul-centred leadership.

But beyond credentials, this work is woven with heart. It’s a practice of deep listening — not only to the person in front of me, but to the story their soul came here to tell.

This work is not performative.
It’s not polished.
It’s raw, sacred, and real.

The Phoenix Writes Is...

A space for the quietly brave.
For those walking through their own fire and longing for a softer kind of rising.

It is:

• A space for stories that rise from ashes

• A space where intuitive wisdom meets poetic reflection

• A space to explore healing, personal evolution, and creative courage

• A space to remember the thread that runs through everything you are

You don’t need to be a writer.
You don’t need to know what comes next.

Whether you arrive through a poem, a reflection, a meditation, or a one-on-one session — everything here is created to help you reconnect with your inner fire, find clarity in your voice, and gently return to the truth you may have forgotten.

This is not therapy — but it is deeply therapeutic.
It is where you are witnessed without needing to be fixed.

And if you are seeking more structured or clinical support, I also work through Zanti Counselling & Psychotherapy, where I offer trauma-informed counselling, EMDR, and holistic therapeutic care.

Rest. Restore. Recover.

Whether you're navigating your own rebirth, standing in the middle of a transition, or simply aching for something real — I’m glad you’re here.

Let this be the place you come when your soul is tired of hiding.
Let this be the moment you decide to soften.
Let this be the page where your new chapter begins.

Welcome to The Phoenix Writes.
And welcome back to you.
