When I was working as an intern the company was into a group called PSI Seminars.

They are also into Tony Robbins.

When I didn't finish PSI Basic everything changed. I had no future there.

How can I explain to a future potential employer that my last employer was in a cult without looking unprofessional?

I highly think they are going to throw me under the bus if used as a reference.

how long was it and do you have anything else experience wise in your resume?

    This is the real consideration, depending on your career so far, such a role might be easier just left off the resume. But they did say it was an internship so they likely have no good career experience to speak for. Personally, I'd aim for purely talking about the experience and just say that "the internship ended"
