Testimonials
“My experience with the Wilder Method far exceeded my expectations. While typically in therapy someone is expected to tell their story as a necessary requirement for next steps, that is not required at all in this process. It truly is a breath of fresh air. I am excited to see how Bill positively impacts the field of mental health and wellness using cutting edge technologies and interventions (including this Wilder Method), while also returning us back to our roots.”
- Dr. Damon Silas, Licensed Clinical Psychologist

“I taught the traditional methods of counseling for 12 years and practiced it for 20. The Wilder method is focused, direct, and best described as a Soul reboot.”
- Dr. Wayne Wilson, Executive Coach
“Divine intervention led me to the Wilder Wellness Center. And for me, miraculous change occurred in my life. I was on a downward spiral, depression, grief from my parents passing. I was in despair. But 3 intensive days of a one on one curriculum designed just for me at the center have put me on a path to healing and recovery. Bill has a true gift to delve into others history to uncover areas that need recognition and help you on your journey of self discovery. The cold water immersion brought out the wild primal animal inside that said, “I can overcome things in my life with breath, focus, desire. Run toward that which scares you the most. If you are looking for a change, a reboot, self discovery, an internal cleansing….This is where you need to be. This isn’t a one and done experience, they care, they follow up and truly want you to benefit from what they offer.

- Jack Grossman, Award winning Author
“Wilder Wellness Center’s assessment tools are grounded in such good theory and are so relevant to my nature and longings. I was immediately able to engage with both him, his assessment tool and ultimately, what needed to come forth within myself. As a therapist myself, I would highly recommend Bill Wilder’s method and the Wilder Wellness Center to anyone who feels stuck, lost, or thinks they’ve missed out on their calling in life.”
- Doug Fotia, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
“I received more from the 5 hours customized experience then I did in years of traditional talk therapy. Traditional talk therapy left me feeling frustrated spinning in circles. Even the more advanced approaches like EMDR, IFS and yoga as separate treatments could not simultaneously remove some of the left over impacts of trauma that left my nervous system stuck. Combining the body, mind and soul in real time, creates a unique and powerful change that cannot be accomplished with other therapies in a vacuum. The Wilder Wellness Center team customized a transformative experience that cannot be undone. I was able to forgive and release my anger, resentment and unhealthy rebellion instantly as it melted away during the cold immersion. I felt energized, ready to face all my dreams with open arms and a vibrant spirit for the first time in my life."
- Patricia Ballard, Licensed Mental Health Counselor & EMDR Trauma Specialist
“Bill’s passion for growth is infectious. Borne out of his own experience in general, and in the worlds of spirituality and psychology in particular, he has creatively synthesized a number of diverse wisdom streams into a coherent, easy to understand, but ass-kicking way. He offers a gentle, curious, and solid presence to guide others along their journey - to help get them unstuck, to give them a taste for more, and to help them unlock the fire and vitality that exists deep within all of us.“
- Glenn Hollingsworth Ph.D, LMFT, Professor of Marriage and Family Therapy
“While working with Bill it quickly became apparent that he isn’t beholden to “a way”. I’ve periodically sought after “mental health care” from professionals and others for thirty-plus years when I’ve felt and or known there was good reason for additional support and direction. The ones I continued to work with were who met me where I was and didn’t insist on a specific technique to discover me. Bill uses several different approaches, in conjunction with his own, to help you discover yourself versus a methodology to explain who, why and how you are. In allowing for you to define yourself, you’re then empowered to choose your own path toward an enlightened self that Bill can encourage.”
- Brian Durham, Sales Training Manager at BMW of North America, LLC
“Bill is not only a theoretical genius, his assessment method is perhaps the quickest, least conventional approach to getting to the heart of what people truly need in their lives. I have known Bill for years watching him formulate his approach and am both proud of and amazed at what has come to fruition.”
- James Retarides, Licensed Professional Counselor & Owner of Empower House Center for Self Efficacy
"Our three day couple’s intensive was one of the most crucial experiences of our lives. We both worked through The Wilder Method with Bill separately, so we could solidify our understanding of ourselves and the areas we were holding back in our lives. Then, when you bring two people back together who are constructively aware and working on themselves and enter the next session with Amanda, a shaman and spiritual director, your heart, body and mind are opened and willing to do the work. To be vulnerable enough to see and recognize progress. Our experience at Wilder changed us forever...without a doubt."
- Shar Piedmonte, Stay at home mother
“A transformative method for the mind, body, and spirit like no other.”
-Matt Hersh - Business Coach & Consultant
“I never thought I would feel so alive and optimistic again. Working with Bill has awoken parts of my mind & soul that desperately needed to be fed. I also proved to myself that I can create my destiny and overcome my fears. I could not be more thankful for being referred to Bill. The cold water & breathing, in conjunction with therapy, will change your life for the best.”
-Matthew Mulligan, 27
“I spent so much money and time on CBT and only made minor incremental progress. In just one session at the Wilder Wellness Center, an incredible amount of trauma has shifted and I can’t wait to work through it during the remainder of my reset.”
-Sherry L., Stay at home mother
“I’ve been on top of the world. Sometimes I just scream when I’m by myself because I’m so much happier.”
