Joseph P. Szimhart
.
began
research into cultic influence in 1980, after ending his two-year
devotion to a New Age sect called Church Universal and Triumphant.
He began to work professionally as an intervention specialist and
exit counselor in 1986 on an international scale. From 1985 through
1992, he was chairman of an interdenominational, cult information
organization in New Mexico and lectured throughout the state.
He has been assisting The Roberts Group Parents Network (TRGPN) as an expert advisor since
its founding.
Szimhart is a
long-time cult critic who has assisted in interventions
related to a large variety of groups.
He has
written many reviews and articles about cultic issues for
Skeptical Inquirer, Cultic Studies Journal, and other
publications. He continues to consult for the media and maintains a
website for information about cults: http://www.users.fast.net~szimhart.
For family reasons, he minimized his exit counseling work since 1998
to take a position with a psychiatric emergency hospital. Mr.
Szimhart continues to pursue his fine art career, currently working
on several commissions. He lives in Douglasville,
Pennsylvania.
