Conference LineUp

Sarah Young, Keynote

How Our Psychology is Preyed Upon by Cults
Chris Shelton, MSc
Chris used to be a Scientologist and escaped in 2013. In realizing just how deep the rabbit hole of manipulation and deceit of Scientology was, Chris created videos outlining how Scientology works. He then began talking to psychologists, sociologists and former cult survivors across the spectrum as part of his own recovery and this led to completing a Masters degree in the Psychology of Coercive Control. In addition to creating videos and a weekly podcast, Chris also consults one-on-one with cult/coercion victims and helps their family/friends in getting people out of cults. He is currently working on a book about cult recovery which he hopes to have published late this year.
