Are you tired of feeling lost in your recovery after cult involvement? 

Cult abuse is especially difficult to overcome because our traumatic experiences are rooted within the groups that promised to keep us safe from the world. But then the groups got culty and caused incredible harm. Does that sound like you? You aren't alone.

 
We've created an approachable way to learn and get some support while you work through what happened to you. Here's some resources you can immediately access.

The number one experience coming out of cults: 

Overwhelm & disbelief. 

So we're taking overwhelm head on. 

 

We've heard people say "I know I was in a cult, but I need more guidance on how to actually recover."
It makes sense...

...that you'd need a little more support. After all, cult groups indoctrinate you, scare you, and then leave you completely stranded. If you feel easily overwhelmed when trying to find ways to recover from your cult experience, then we can put a step-by-step plan together for you.

You do not have to live with the aftermath of cult abuse forever. You can begin your recovery now. We do a little coaching a little differently around here. We only offer coaching to the members of A Year of Non-Magical Thinking for Survivors. You can join here and then we can jump into coaching for more personalized feedback.

Start Your Recovery

Cult & spiritual abuse is more common than you think.

Do you worry that you'll never actually feel better after leaving your destructive and controlling group?

 

Cult abuse can feel like...

  • A complete loss of the feeling of safety, especially in relationships with those around you. You thought that cult leader was safe, so now what are you supposed to believe?
  • Being violated with overreaching and dogmatic belief systems and demands of your time, energy, and finances. 
  • Feeling significant shame around having joined a cult in the first place. You feel stupid and gullible (hint: you are neither, but it doesn't feel like that right now)

You do not have to live with religious trauma forever.

You can begin your recovery now.
