I’m Alyssa Wilder.
Thanks for stopping by.
Dear one, I started right were you are.. looking for support, feeling exhausted and a fragment of the human I longed to be.
My passion and life’s work is to offer back to people what I have graciously and kindly been given by so many safe, experienced people who have traversed and fought for my wholeness and healing. You were meant for wild things!
I am a Trauma informed Storywork Guide, Somatic Guide, Ritual Maker and Creative. I am also an artist, musician and photographer offering unique Guide/Coaching services in Chattanooga, TN and online.
I’ve been married to my husband Chris for 2 years. We have a beautiful blended family with three kids (10,11 and 16) and a foxy fur child Summit.
Background and Training
In my work with people, I use the core elements of "Narrative Focused Trauma Care," a life changing methodology developed by The Allender Center at the Seattle School of Theology and Psychology. This work has not only brought incredible restoration and hope to my own life, but has transformed the lives of individuals and faith communities all across the globe.
I also have a background in somatic body based practice and ritual making, and the arts, that are all incorporated into my uniapproach. The past decade I have spent in the ministry and non profit world as a worship pastor, creative and culture builder.
