info_outlineBronwyn Schweigerdt is a psychotherapist who knows that even though feelings are invisible, they don’t evaporate. Instead, they are stored in our subconscious mind and body when they’re disowned. These feelings haunt us and cause mental illness and health issues until we externalize them into words with someone who can hear and validate them. She especially loves playing midwife this way, helping her clients – and now, her podcast listeners – externalize painful feelings. She has experienced success in assisting people to break free of depression and anxiety, as well as migraines, insomnia and GI issues, by reconnecting them to their anger and healing their relationship with anger and themselves. Bronwyn has a master's degree in counseling and another in nutrition. She is a public speaker, author, and licensed psychotherapist.
