  • Hello, hello!!
    Posting my Myth vs Fact draft here. For whatever reason, I continue to attract high-achievers to my hypnotherapy practice, and they’re really incredibly cool to work with. This is a post targeted to that crowd… I welcome any and all feedback here, Dr. Judy and Joan are my micro-team for this. Thanks in advance!

    Are you a…Read More

  • Hello everyone. I reworked my PSA a bit. I am planning to use this as a blog, and probably not an email at this time, FYI.

    TITLE: Why therapy fails and hypnotherapy succeeds

    Talk therapy SUCKS at solving your problems. It’s great at digging up the issues and gaining perspective, but it’s lousy at getting you past them. Fortunately, hyp…Read More

    • Hi Jessica, this is now reading more effectively for me as a reader and covering all the bases. Brava!

    • And Jessica, would you also give me some feedback on my latest video blog? I posted the link here on our wall 2 days ago. Your thoughts are most appreciated! Thanks, Nancy

    • Hi again Jessica, I believe you asked me for feedback on your title? I think the current title is very effective ; and I also think the first sentence that follows it makes your point even stronger, “Talk therapy SUCKS”. If you’re open to kicking the tone up, how about something like,” Why Therapy SUCKS and Hypnotherapy ROCKS at Solving Your…Read More

  • Hello! My PSA draft I below….I’m nervous even posting it here! I have many friends who are either therapists or who have attended therapy for years (just like me…I went to therapy for 20 years), and putting this on MY social will rock some boats…but that’s what I’m here for!!! Here goes….

    • Well I totally agree with your hook statement —

    • Jessica I’ll read the rest later, but like Amy says, YOUR HOOK ROOOOOCCCCCKKKKKKSSSSSS!!!!!!

    • Hi Jessica, do you have a specific client example that you can include to illustrate/show proof? Would love to see it! Or if using your general example of public speaking, I was wondering, “How?” … would hypnosis help me move past it whereas talk therapy doesn’t?

      • Thanks for the feedback, Nancy… super helpful. I believe you’re saying that while my example explains the process of hypnosis, it doesn’t support my hook statement, and that really needs supporting…did I get that right??

        • You’re welcome, Jessica! To clarify, an actual and specific (vs. general) example of a real client of yours (working on any issue, including public speaking) would lend stronger social proof and impact, vs. the general reference to public speaking that you offer here. E.g., “Helping my client, Kim, with her anxiety around public speaking,..”…Read More

          • Thanks, Nancy. About 80% of my clients are in talk therapy currently, and hypnosis works great in tandem. I am not really looking to draw them away from therapy, I just don’t think it gets the job done 100%. I love the thought about using a more specific example.

    • Hi Jessica, lots of good stuff in here. If you don’t want to take on all the therapists you know, consider qualifying your statement “Talk therapy often SUCKS at solving your problems.”
      -you could make it about you. “Talk therapy sucked at solving my problems”.
      -Or a mixed alternative might be “Talk therapy sucked at solving my problems. How about…Read More

    • Jumping right into Shift Hypnosis feels a bit like a sales pitch. I might give the benefits, and then name it later.

      • Thanks, Joel. Shift Hypnosis is the name of my business. It’s endorsed by a prestigious marketing firm as a “good name”, and I’ve already purchased logo, url, etc. That part is here to stay.

        • Great! I remember it as an issue a while ago, but I haven’t heard a lot about it lately. A big firm did the research, and you’ve bought it. Those are good things.

    • Here is a thought that may be a bit controversial. In terms of naming things, used to be some people advocate against words that sound similar to a negative word. “Discuss” for some can sound similar to “disgust”, “shift” has some potential for risk in this arena. How much of an issue this truly is, Maybe it’s nothing. I have no idea. I would be…Read More

    • Whoa! I felt that intro – a nice gut punch and I like it. Very well written, I’m clear on your stance though I’d love more clarity (or more detail) around your method – or more about the shift process of a client’s experience. You come out with a knock out and then it gets soft around the area that lets me know why I shouldn’t bother with talk…Read More

    • The latter part, talking about what you do is good, but for me, perhaps too generic. I’m not sure, fully how to describe what I’m looking for. So, please forgive me, I’m going to write my version of what I would say, and hopefully, that will spark some ideas.
      “Don’t worry, there is an answer.
