ICSA Update
February 2011
Trauma, Cults, and Combat PTSD: Applying a Cognitive Processing Therapy Program for Soldiers to Cult Recovery. On Saturday, May 14, 2011 from 3:00 – 5:30 p.m., Madeleine Tobias, APRN, will speak on this subject at an ICSA Special Event in New York City. Her talk will take place at the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul (site of coming ICSA local meetings – see below). For many years Madeleine Tobias, co-author ofCaptive Hearts, Captive Minds, and Take Back Your Life, was a counselor to former cult members. In 1994 she began to work at the Vet Center (Readjustment Counseling Services) a division of the Veteran’s Administration, where she applied her experience dealing with trauma in former cult members to the needs of combat veterans and those with military sexual trauma. Now, Ms. Tobias would like to discuss how what she has learned in her trauma work with veterans can apply to the recovery needs of ex-cult members. In this special ICSA event, Ms. Tobias will present her ideas and lead an extended discussion on the subject of trauma and cults. All who are interested in this subject are welcome to attend and participate in the discussion, including mental health professionals, former group members, families of the cult involved, researchers, and students. Flyers and e-mail announcements will go out soon. If you want to make sure you receive announcements on this event, New York local meetings, and future New York events, please add your e-mail to the New York sign-up box on our local meetings page:http://icsahome.com/infoserv_respond/event_localmeetings.asp
