“Dayle is an authentic, wise, and deeply caring therapist. She brings all of herself to her work, and she has a unique gift to be extremely caring while also speaking clear truth when it’s needed. I’m grateful to know Dayle and to have worked with her. Clients are extremely lucky to have her as their therapist.” Dan Drake, LMFT, CCPS-S, CSAT- S, Clinical Director Banyan Therapy Group and After Betrayal Healing, Co-Author “Full Disclosure" workbook series, "Building Truth Intimacy", "Rebuilding Your Foundation", and “Letters From a Sex Addict"

“In her work with patients, Ms. Dayle Brenner Wild, LCSW-R embodies what I think are the three dimensions of the outstanding psychotherapist.

The first of these is the capacity to form deep and profound connections with the people that she works with. She not only sincerely cares for them, but she also creates a space of safety where they can both be and reveal who they are.

The second is that she has studied many different therapeutic arts which she brings together in her own unique, skillful, and creative way. I know her from her work with parts and Chairwork – but these are just a few of the methods that she draws on.

The third is that she is willing to work courageously. She is a therapist who is willing to go to the places of great pain and suffering. She has done the work – which means that her patients will be able to go there with someone who knows what the journey entails.

Dayle is a woman I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to do this work – They would be fortunate to have her as their therapist.” - Dr. Scott Kellogg, PhD, Co-Founder, Chairwork Psychotherapy Initiative, 2026

“Dayle met me at my worst, without knowing the version of me before all of this. Dayle didn’t judge me; she jumped right in with me. She made me feel seen, safe, heard, supported, and understood. Dayle was a consistent person during this time where nothing in my life was consistent. She helped me find myself each week and challenged me to keep going when I didn’t even think that was possible. Dayle saw the real me even when I couldn’t see that for myself and she helped me not only remember who I was before but also helped me in finding this new version of myself. Dayle was my cheerleader for things I never thought I would be celebrating and made me realize that everything, no matter how big or small, she was right there celebrating everything with me and helped me recognize that each was a step in my healing process. Dayle is truly an amazing person and therapist. I am so very grateful that Dayle is part of my story. “- AH September 2026 

“Dayle brought something truly special to our trauma bond recovery group today. From the moment she began speaking, it was clear she deeply understands the lived experience of betrayal trauma - not just from a clinical perspective, but with a compassion that can only come from really "getting it." Her discussion of how partners are gaslit, minimized, and made to feel "crazy" resonated profoundly with our members. She validated experiences that many have struggled to put into words for years. Her non-judgmental approach to the impossible "stay or go" decision lifted visible weight off shoulders throughout the room. What stood out most was her ability to address both the devastation of betrayal trauma AND sex addiction with equal expertise and sensitivity. She helped our community understand the signs, patterns, and trajectory of addiction - including the unique challenges created by internet and social media - without ever losing sight of the partner's experience and pain. Dayle has a gift for making complex trauma concepts accessible while never minimizing their impact. She answered every question with thoughtfulness and authenticity, creating a safe space where our members felt truly seen and heard. Our community is still buzzing about her presentation. Multiple members have already asked when we can have her back. She didn't just share information - she offered hope, validation, and practical pathways forward for people who desperately needed all three. Cannot recommend her highly enough for any group supporting betrayed partners or addressing trauma bonds. She's a treasure.” - Dr. Nadine Macaluso, PhD, Trauma Bond Expert, Narcisssist & CPTSD Educator/Author/Speaker/Ex-wife to “The Wolf of Wall Street”, October, 2025

“There is an art to earning someone’s trust, truly hearing someone’s needs, and being able to clearly guide them in the right direction. I can confidently say that Dayle has mastered these skills. As a result, she has been a guiding force in my life during some of the most crucial decision making moments thus far. I sincerely have endless respect for Dayle.  I am especially grateful for her mentoring and inspiring me to pursue my Master’s degree.”

-Bari Schilowitz, LMHC student, LIU-CW POST, Class of 2018

“I was a patient of Dayle’s and received individual counseling as well as participated in a group, I believe it was called “Suddenly Single”. Dayle was the most professional social worker I have ever had. Through many years with other therapists I was frustrated and felt I was only managing each crisis. Dayle helped me develop the skills I needed to maintain healthy relationships, end unhealthy ones and model behavior for my children. The skills she helped me develop are often seen with my children, now in their 20’s and I have been happily married for over a decade. I have been able to manage the ups and downs of life, both personally and professionally and my last appointment was years ago. I often say, “it was the best money I ever spent”. She’s worth it and I know I am too.”

-E. A., School Administrator
