WHO WE ARE

Who We Are

Cult Consulting Australia (CCA) was established in 1991 in response to the growing number of cults operating in Australia.

The emergence of cults in Australia is not limited to the better-known eastern cults which became very popular in the 70's and 80's. Numerous other groups like new religious movements, personal developmentorganizations, multi-level marketing groups are also cause for concern. The behaviour of individuals acting as faith healers, psychics and mediums often emulates cult-like practices.


After the 9/11 terror attacks, CCA took an interest in the similar recruitment and mind control techniques used by cults and terror groups. CCA has assisted hundreds of individuals and families whose loved ones have been ensnared in these groups. In addition, CCA has worked with government authorities , the legal fraternity, medical and teaching professions in relation to cults. CCA is regularly invited by the media to comment on cult-related matters. CCA is based in Melbourne; however, its work extends to interstate and overseas.

A group of people are putting their hands together.
  • CCA is a non-denominational organisation.
  • CCA is committed to families who have been affected by mind-control organisations.
  • CCA does not engage in any unprofessional or coercive practices.
  • CCA is committed to education and awareness as the most effective means by which to curtail the recruitment by mind-control groups.
  • CCA is committed to informing the allied health profession to better understand how to assist people who are victims of mind control.
  • CCA is committed to providing expert advice to the legal fraternity, government and security agencies, medical professionals and the community at large.
  • CCA believes that there are similarities between the means used by cults to indoctrinate their followers and the methods used by terror groups to radicalise their recruits.
