The Leave the Cult Handbook (Paperback)

Help for Cult Survivors and the People Who Care About Them
There are 3000 to 5000 cults in the US alone, with millions of members. Those who become disenchanted and leave often experience profound distress. The Leave the Cult Handbook offers solace, insight, and practical guidance to former members and their families. It also provides a rare glimpse into the inner workings of cult-like groups and how they affect followers for anyone wanting to know.
What's In the Book? Readers find chapters on cult characteristics, cult leaders, assessing whether their group was a cult, evaluating losses and gains, and moving forward. A free, downloadable Workbook comes with the package, providing readers a chance to process their own journey and use the links to resources.
What Readers Are Saying on Amazon "With sensitivity and compassion, the author brings one through the self-misgivings that accompany the decision to sever affiliation with an organization that is no longer providing emotional, psychological and spiritual happiness. Having made her own way through the healing process and counseled others through the same journey, the author is able to concisely lay out a process for restoring one's faith in life and oneself such that wellness can be regained in the most expedient manner possible. I found it very helpful." -- Mary Goodyear
"Very insightful, great book for parents, friends or anyone who is in a group and wondering if they are in a "high demand group." -- Samuel Bradshaw
"This is a wonderful handbook, and I only wish it had been available when I left a cult and struggled through much what the author describes on my own. I hope others find this when they need it, and that they use this guide as they listen to their own inner wisdom to build and rebuild their lives outside of a cult." -- Anni Gardner
