Society has led us to believe that therapy is for those with deep-seated issues and that it’s not for those of us who are “successful and stable”. The Therapy: Deconstructed podcast, hosted by Dr. Bonnie Wims, debunks the myths and societal beliefs about therapy and explains not only what therapy is, but also how it can help anyone who’s facing obstacles in their lives.
As a therapist, coach, and a UK Chartered Counseling Psychologist specializing in helping the global community, Dr. Bonnie has helped innumerable people get from where they are to where they’d like to be. She’s “your someone else” who is there for you when you need to bounce things off of so that you can better understand yourself. And she does it in a warm and intelligent style that’s peppered with levity.
Listen in each week to Dr. Wims if you’re therapy-curious and get answers to all your questions about what therapy is, what it is not, and how therapy may be the x-factor you’ve been searching for.

01. The Power of Therapy to Heal Trauma
Growing up in an abusive family and years of therapy helped Dr. Bonnie Wims to understand the reasons why we think and behave the way we do.
Life is hard and it happens to all of us. No one escapes the challenges and unfairness that life can throw our way. Challenges sometimes can have us feeling helpless or less equipped to manage our lives the way we want to.
Let’s talk about the benefit of mental wellness, therapy, and how our lives can change when we open ourselves up to self-reflection.

Customer Reviews
Dr. Bonnie Wims
As someone who had never gone to therapy, I found myself in a situation last year that was very sad, confusing and overwhelming for me and I was really unable to figure my way through it. I turned to Bonnie and she so graciously and effortlessly (seemingly) had so much empathy and compassion for my feelings and she truly helped me navigate getting my emotions and really my life back on track. I am very grateful for Bonnie and her wisdom, honesty, humor, candor but mostly for her compassion. I’m excited to listen to her podcast but would highly encourage anyone who is reading this to reach out to her. She really helped me and I am very thankful to have her in my corner.

Please take a listen. You will learn so much from her. I have learned a great deal from her.
Deconstructing therapy, where has this been my whole life!?
I am so happy to have stumbled across this podcast. As a man, I have been hesitant about the idea of therapy but Dr. Wims’ approach, tone and sincerity makes me feel at peace and that I am in good hands! I am looking forward to deepening my understanding of therapy and embarking on this journey with her. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!
