Courses
Dr. Lalich co-leads psychoeducational learning courses on Zoom for survivors of cults and abusive relationships on topics related to their recovery. These are typically set up as a series but may at times be one session. Courses focus on deepening the participants’ understanding of their experiences from a cult- and trauma-informed perspective. Sessions address relevant and explanatory theories, trauma and the brain, anxiety and panic attacks, triggers, and haunting memories while providing opportunities for participation, plus homework, tools, and skills to enhance recovery.
