In this powerful interview Liz Gregory, founder of the Gloriavale Leavers’ Support Trust, a New Zealand-based non-profit dedicated to helping those who manage to escape the abusive, multi-generational cult compound, Gloriavale. Located on the remote west coast of New Zealand’s South Island, Gloriavale has been shrouded in secrecy and control for decades and now those who escape are showing up across New Zealand in need of support.
Liz dives into the complexities of spiritual abuse—when faith is weaponized against you—and shares her mission to help upskill mental health professionals, including psychologists and therapists, to effectively support former cult members. She’ll be speaking at Decult this October, where she will discuss her work, the psychological impacts of cult control, and the urgent need for trained professionals in this field.
This conversation sheds light on the extreme challenges faced by cult leavers and the critical role mental health care workers can play in their recovery. If you’re a professional in the psychology or therapy field, this is your chance to learn from a true expert on the front lines of cult recovery.
