Have you been harmed by toxic religion? Learn how to recover and reclaim your life.

Psychologist Marlene Winell is uniquely qualified to address the subject of this book. In addition to her personal experience with leaving fundamentalist religion, she has worked with clients recovering from religion for 28 years. She is known for coining the term Religious Trauma Syndrome.

- information about the key issues of recovery

- relevant family dynamics

- the power of manipulations

- motivations for belonging and for leaving religion

- specific steps for healing and reclaiming life

- further steps for rebuilding life in the present
