About Rewilding
A living notebook of experiments in self, relationship, and wildness…as they unfold at the edge of what no longer fits and what has not yet formed.
A space for those learning how to reconnect with themselves and return to their authentic self, one honest moment at a time.
Meet The In-Between Guide
I write from the liminal spaces—between wild and civilized, self and other, leaving and returning. Rewilding Self is my ongoing field journal, tracing how relationships, psyche, and place untangle and root us back into aliveness.
I don’t write from certainty.
I write from the moment something cracks open… and asks to be seen.
Field Notes From The Threshold
This space is not a roadmap but a companionship: story, psyche, and myth meeting daily life. I write in real time, inviting you to question domestication, honor complexity, and practice a slower, wilder way of relating.
Notice what in you leans closer… and what hesitates.
Author Bio
Jen Hyatt, LMFT is a licensed psychotherapist, writer, podcast host and founder of Storm Haven Counseling & Wellness in Temecula, California. Her work lives at the intersection of psychology, story, and the spaces we rarely speak out loud. She writes for those navigating identity shifts, relational complexity, and the quiet unraveling that often precedes transformation.
Jen is also the voice behind The Nerdie Therapist, where she writes blogs and hosts podcast conversations that explore rewilding, attachment, misattunement, grief, and the return to self.
Jen’s approach is rooted in depth psychology, somatic awareness, and a neurodivergent-affirming lens. She is drawn to the undercurrents of human experience, the patterns beneath behavior, and the moments where something internal no longer fits the life built around it. Her work engages these themes as lived experience, something that moves through the body, reshapes perception, and asks for a different kind of presence.
Her work is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you were before the world told you who to be.
You are not unraveling. You are shedding what was never yours.
You are not lost. You are remembering the way back to yourself.
