You Don't Have To White Knuckle It.

Whether you're carrying the weight of 'keeping it all together', navigating a storming relationship, or finding your footing after trauma, a quiet, supportive space is waiting for you. The most important thing, is you don't have to do it alone.

Who I Work With

Areas of Speciality

Couples Counselling coming May 2027.

You've trained your body for years, but no one teaches you how to train the mind that carries it. I work with athletes and other high performers navigating performance anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, the transition out of sport (by choice or not) and exploring the voice of the nervous system. We blend CBT and somatic tools so you can compete, and live, from a grounded place, performance-oriented place.

Relationships are where our deepest wounds and our deepest healing both happen. I work with partners and family members navigating the complexities of connection, including estrangement, communication breakdowns, boundary setting, and challenges from everyday life.

Whether you're seeking help managing anxiety, addressing depression or navigating complex trauma, this space is for you. Together, we work to address its impact using a blend of trauma-informed somatic therapy and evidence based talk therapy. This process is slow, graded and paced by you to ensure safety and stability throughout.

The Approach

Returning to your fullest self

Each person is beautifully unique and complex, and my approach blends together multiple modalities to best meet your needs. While some thrive with homework and cognitive dialogue, others needs a body-based approach to feel and simply hold, their emotion. All of you is welcome here.

Family Ruptures PTSD and Complex Trauma Burnout & Perfectionism Identity Loss Depression & Anxiety Mindset and Identity
CBT Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Spotting the thought patterns that keep you stuck, and building more useful ones.
DBT Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. Practical skills for regulating big emotions and tolerating distress without shutting down.
Somatic Work Body based practices that help your nervous system feel safe again. Trauma does not just live in the story, it lives in the body.
Narrative Therapy Externalizing and exploring the stories that we tell ourselves, to reveal truths, uncover values and update old beliefs.

About

Meet Sav Wild

Originally from Vancouver Island, I've spent more time living outside of Canada than in. I currently reside in the Okanagan Valley, but due to frequent moving have left my office remote. As a semi-pro runner, I live the world of competitive sports daily. I'm a wife to a phenomenal husband, a dog mom to a little furry rascal (who may show up from time to time) and I'm currently completing my supervised clinical training hours towards full designation. I simultaneously completed my ICF Life Coach registration after recognizing that some individuals want a more practical, present-day focused experience.

I've worked with a wide range of individuals in the counsellor seat, including competitive athletes, exhausted couples, complex parent-child dynamics and those navigating the lingering effects of trauma. I meet people where they are, blend evidence based modalities to fit the person and hold this primary truth: within each of us lies the potential for a happier, more fulfilled life.

Full designation expected May 2027, at which point I will be able to accept insurance and extended health benefits. For now, everything is handled via direct-pay.
