The inspirational therapist John Kim LMFT is better known as the podcaster and author, The Angry Therapist. His podcast deliverers bit-size pieces of self-help and therapy three times a week, plus a longer interview or conversation on Mondays. His most famous book, I Used to Be a Miserable F*ck: An Everyman’s Guide to a Meaningful Life, was published in 2019.
Kim pioneered the online life coaching movement after going through a divorce which led to his total re-birth. He quickly built up a devoted following of fans who loved his frank and authentic insights that he freely shared on social media, practicing transparency and sharing his story which therapists are taught not to do. He became known as an unconventional therapist who worked out of the box by seeing clients at unusual places, such as at coffee shops, or out on hikes. He later built up a coaching team of his own and launched a sister company called JRNI.
Kim regularly connects with his hundreds of thousands of followers and fans through Instagram, and Twitter, posting pictures and comments about his therapeutic life. He also has an official website, theangrytherapist.com.
