About Bronwyn Schweigerdt

Bronwyn is an evocative therapist who helps people process and externalize the feelings they are most ashamed to acknowledge, such as anger, hatred, and rage. She believes these emotions, though invisible, do not simply disappear but are stored in the body until they are expressed and validated. Bronwyn has guided many clients—and podcast listeners—toward healing from depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and even psychosis by helping them reconnect with their anger and transform their relationship with it.

Bronwyn emphasizes that a healthy relationship with anger is essential for establishing boundaries, practicing assertiveness, and trusting oneself. She also believes that trauma becomes bearable when feelings are shared with a compassionate listener, rather than faced in isolation. Her work empowers individuals to stop abandoning themselves, embrace their authentic selves, and flourish in their relationships and environments.
