Dear Beginner Therapist: A handbook for Mental Health Professionals

This is episode 6 of the cult series. In this episode we breakdown the step by step process of indoctrination into a cult. How exactly do you go from a regular guy living your life, to a raving cult member who is completely sold to the message of a cult?

This is how people get indoctrinated into cults:

  1. Initial Contact
  2. Building rapport
  3. Sharing information
  4. Isolation
  5. Control
  6. Group pressure to conform
  7. Total commitment

Read about Steven Hassan's BITE model of authoritarian control used by cults to get you indoctrinated.

  1. Ep1: What is a cult
  2. Ep2: Anatomy of a Cult
  3. Ep3: Psychology of a Cult
