Recovering from Religion

Recovering from Religion Practical support for people considering a life outside of religious and supernatural belief. Welcome If this is you, we want to help you find your way out.

If you are one of the millions of people who have determined that religion no longer has a place in your life, this may be the right spot for you. Many people love the social support they get from religion, but can’t deal with all the illogical ideas they are required to espouse. It can be difficult to leave a religion because family and culture put so much pressure on us to stay and pretend to believe.

“What I got from it was just amazing. It was like coming home.”

For people leaving religion, the loss of community can be one of the hardest parts of the journey. At Recovering from Religion’s Fall Excursion, past attendees have found connection, renewed joy, and space to begin the next chapter of their lives.

In this video, two former attendees share what the experience meant to them—from rediscovering music and singing to finding a new family and realizing they were not alone.

Join us September 25–27, 2026, in the Smoky Mountains near Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, for a warm, accepting, family-friendly weekend of workshops, relaxation, friendship, and community.

This week on RfRx, our guest will be Dr. Dan Wilson. Find out how Dan went from believing in conspiracy theories about secret cancer cures and a 9/11 cover-up, to becoming a molecular biologist and science communicator battling these and other such claims – including widespread anti-vaccine disinformation – using his YouTube channel, Debunk the Funk.

Our topics will include conspiracy theories, thinking critically about anti-vaccine claims, approaches to communicating with anti-vaccine believers, the recent Dr. Fauci congressional hearings, and much more.

When you’re seeking support, your therapist should respect your beliefs—or lack thereof.

The Secular Therapy Project connects people with secular, evidence-based mental health clinicians who understand that effective care does not require religion. Whether you are navigating religious trauma, a change in faith, anxiety, grief, relationships, or another challenge, you deserve support that meets you where you are.
