It's definitely a cult like vibe and honestly everyone that I have ever met who has paid for confidence, life changing, money making, spiritual transformation in a weekend ends up being basically the same person in the end.  Sure,  they offer life changing insights, but it's only insight and few people have the resources to implement the changes that insight offers alone.  Like any "mystery school" you must keep paying for more insights, e.g: the next class.  You will meet many lost souls in these communities that are looking for a church like experience without going to church and because of this it can take on a cult like vibe.   Most people attending will tell you about their experience with other groups and gurus, be is TM, or Tony Robbin...one is left to wonder, why didn't the other group do the trick?

You will be safer joining a Buddhist meditation group (still has cult like devotees, but most worship an intellectual brand of controlled devotion.  They generally they only seek small weekly donations and all of the dharma talks are open to everyone).

Psychotherapy is expensive, but the aim is teach you some skills to empower yourself that aren't gimmicks.  It is hard work and there are no quick fixes, but it can be totally worth it with a competent and ethical therapist.
