Anchor of Hope Therapy - Cult Recovery Counseling

It’s So Good to Talk to Someone Who "Gets It"

Leaving a cult-like church can be disorienting. After years of high-control religious beliefs, separating those teachings from your true identity is challenging. Rediscovering yourself and reclaiming autonomy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. 

We’ve walked this path. For 20 years, we were part of a toxic church that shaped our beliefs through manipulation. Our journey out led to healing and a deeper connection with God, and a profound understanding of the tactics, culture and power that unhealthy, cult-like organizations operate in.   This has compelled us to reach out and help others.

Through Anchor of Hope Therapy and The Way Out to Freedom, we offer trauma-informed Cult Recovery Counseling nationwide. As Certified Think Differently Mental Health Life Coaches, we provide a safe, confidential space to heal emotional and spiritual wounds. Drawing from our training and our own experiences with emotional and spiritual abuse, we guide individuals to rediscover their true selves, rebuild their lives, and move forward with confidence. 

Stephen, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Texas and Certified Life Coach, holds a master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Abilene Christian University and a B.A. in Psychology from Hope College.  Kristy is a Certified Life Coach.
