Reid Bervik has an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and is a writer, creator, and speaker. In this season finale, I ask Reid about his experiences in deconstructing his faith from his white evangelical background and the trials, tribulations, and triumphs within his story. Listen to hear from a first-hand perspective on the impact deconstructing has on your mental health (the freedom found as well as the difficulty through), how to best come alongside those deconstructing (be a friend!), and how to best take care of yourself through your deconstruction. 

Stick around after our conversation to hear me give a departing word for season 1 and don’t forget to follow the DGIS Instagram to stay up to date on season 2 and all things “Dear God, I’m Sad”!
