When Therapy Ads Get Uncomfortable
The BACP No More Stiff Upper Lip campaign has generated significant national coverage - and strong reactions within the therapy profession. Rather than asking whether the campaign was “good” or “bad”, I’m exploring something slightly different: What was the campaign trying to do? Whether it "worked" - and what that even means And what can we learn from it as therapists building private practices Takeaways: Niching inevitably includes some people and excludes others Securing media attention and professional approval are not always the same thing Standing out may invite a critical reaction Think about how it might land with clients A critical reaction does not automatically mean failure This episode discusses the BACP No More Stiff Upper Lip campaign, therapy marketing, and niching in private practice.
