From my understanding it seems that many therapists do not understand high control groups/cults very well whichever flavor they may be. People have complained that they have to educate the therapist before they can get down to getting actual help. It is very frustrating for the client of the therapist to have to pay an hourly fee for educating the therapist.
The therapists often don't understand why the person just didn't leave the group, not understanding shunning or whatever pain the high control/cult inflicts on its members who choose to believe differently. It makes no sense to me that a therapist isn't somewhat educated in this or couldn't spend even a half hour learning about it but apparently many don't.
That very reason of 'why didn't you just leave' is the reason there will never be any special governmental help for specific cults/high control groups. They didn't hold an actual gun to your head just your entire family and social structure. I wonder if a diagnosis of PTSD would be better financially speaking? I am not sure how insurances work regarding mental health issues.
Whenever I (a non & never been jw) would try to discuss why I was so opposed to jw's in general to non jw's they often truly did not believe me when I told them about 'apostates', shunning, how child sexual abuse is handled, blood issue and so on. Once someone said I was the one with the problem and they refused to even look at the official jw site, apostate sites, books or legal documents from actual court cases. They still see jw's as just some quirky group that dresses nice and at least they 'truly live their faith by knocking on peoples doors to tell them about God'.
I know nothing about the therapist link I posted above other than what her website says.
