Whether you've already left a cult or high-control group, or are thinking about it . . .
Chances are you have a lot of questions. Questions like:
"Who am I without this group?"
"Will I lose my community and family if I leave?"
"How will I ever figure out who I am as a person versus who I was in this group?"
"Should I tell others that I was part of this (cult, group, situation) or will they think less of me?"
And more.
Leaving a high-control group is challenging, but it can be done. Counseling offers you a safe place to process emotions, explore who you are authentically, eliminate old, unhelpful (and often coersive) patterns of thinking and more.
Cult recovery counseling for individuals who want to leave a cultic or high-control setting or who've already left, can be very beneficial.
Note: Joy is able to provide counseling with residents of Vermont only at this time, but can recommend other practitioners for those who live in another state or country.
