I attended a weekend workshop with Esther Cohen of The Alchemy of Nourishment. The class was supposed to be on cleaning up your diet and superfoods and weight.

It quickly became clear she was giving the other women advice that was psychotherapy like: one to leave her husband and another that her weight issues were related to her abuse and she even spoke about other client's sex lives in some detail.

I am a therapist, a real one with degrees, and this is very scary to me. After the class, I did some research and found Cohen has a history of this and also lived in a sex cult called Divine Madness (with her children) and much of work is informed by that experience. A day after the class, she called me and tried to sell me on a much longer program and I told her no thanks.

Here's a New York Times article on Divine Madness, the cult she raised her family in.
