Asking for help can be hard - even more so from a therapist - and even more so if you've been raised to distrust therapy. Sam Sellers is a cult survivor and a trauma therapist who specialises in religious trauma and cult recovery. She shares her knowledge on how to find a good therapist and how to communicate what you need.

Trigger warnings: religious and spiritual abuse and control, SA, CSA, family violence, coercive control. Generally speaking we try not to go into graphic detail, but these are topics that we cover, so please go gently on yourself.

Support

Let's be honest; good trauma informed, cult sensitive therapists and support are hard to find. Please persist and try to find one that works for you. If you’re in a tough spot right now, please know you’re not alone.
