About us

Savyn is an evidence-based digital trauma therapy platform using neuroscience for PTSD and trauma. Savyn reduces PTSD symptoms by 60% in 8 weeks based on our POC study at Sick Kids Research Institute in adults diagnosed with PTSD. We are a social impact organization removing barriers to accessing mental healthcare. Over 3 years of consultations with expert clinicians, community members with lived experiences and scientific literature has yielded a trauma-informed protocol integrated into Savyn’s digital platform that prioritizes the emotional and psychological needs of the client throughout the treatment. We have partnered with high impact community organizations, hospitals and clinics in Canada to reach motor vehicle accident survivors, refugees, and first responders to treat trauma, PTSD, burnout and vicarious trauma. Our platform is becoming a game changer in providing effective, inclusive and accessible PTSD treatment strategies in low-income and vulnerable communities.
