Abstract
This book focuses on what happens after spiritual abuse — the healing journey. Orlowski uses research, interviews, and her own experience to explore how people grieve, extract meaning, and rebuild faith, identity, and trust. It doesn’t only dwell on damage, but on resilience and how people create a healthier relationship with spirituality post-hurt.
It also addresses what religious leaders and community members need to hear in order to avoid causing harm, making it useful not just for survivors but for anyone wanting to build or support safer spiritual spaces.
