What makes me
different?
By Dianne Ruth, CCH, PhD
Calls are
Answered
by me Personally
♦ I answer my own phone.
♦ You will reach me
direct
most of the time.
♦
My voice mail is completely
confidential. No one else has access to it.
♦
I return all calls personally, usually
within a couple of hours … and sometimes within minutes.
♦
I especially welcome calls from 10 am to
7 pm / 7 days including holidays.
♦ I offer you an
initial, up to one half-hour, FREE PERSONAL and CONFIDENTIAL
Consultation. No strings. No commitment. No obligation.
♦ I welcome and
respond to all contacts from my clients during my time off, through
phone calls, text messaging and email. I enjoy giving this extra
level of service.
♦ I will go above and
beyond to do everything possible to help you when you are in need,
even on my days off or after hours.
My Success Rate
♦
I have a 97% success rate using
life coaching plus holistic counseling methods.
♦ According to the
NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health), the average success rate
of psychotherapy is only 20%.
♦ The average
length of time for recovery to take place is 3 to 5 months when working
with me.
♦
According to the NIMH, the average length of time a person is in psychotherapy is
from 2 to 7 years of weekly visits.
My Fees are More
Affordable
♦ My way is much
faster acting, which makes my
fees way more affordable at
potentially one-quarter of the cost of traditional psychotherapy.
♦ A client in
traditional psychotherapy over just a couple of years could
conceivably pay well over $15,000 in insurance co-payments alone!
Confidentiality
♦ Your trust is
sacred to me. I understand that the information you provide to me is
meant only for me to better serve you.
I promise to protect this
information and that it will be treated as confidential.
The exceptions to this are
circumstances where there is clear and imminent danger to you or to
others.
Then, disclosures of information to the appropriate
authorities are usually restricted to only what are necessary and
relevant.
♦ If you choose to do
psychotherapy where you can use your mental health insurance
coverage,
check the HIPPA privacy rules very carefully.
There are
several exceptions and situations where confidentiality does not
apply.
My Clients Are Happy
and Hopeful
♦ My clients tell
me that they begin to feel better starting with the first session.
They do not have to struggle for years with feeling miserable and
overwhelmed.
Each session after that is experienced with another
quantum leap to recovery and feelings of hope and excitement.
♦ Clients have
reported to me that at the end of their sessions with a traditional
psychotherapist, they most always left their sessions feeling worse than
when they came in.
My Techniques Become
Your Techniques
♦
I use techniques
and methods that are POWERFUL, advanced and leading edge. You will
quickly and easily develop a mastery of each process I introduce to
you.
You will then be able to use these techniques for self-help
and as an aid to help close friends and family too for many years to come. More savings!
♦ Rarely will you
learn enough self-help tools during traditional psychotherapy to
avoid a dependence on that system.
♦
I offer a large
selection of FREE easy-to-use, self-help techniques on my website
that really work!
♦
Many psychotherapists have websites that do
not offer any self-help tools for self-empowerment and personal
crisis intervention.
You end up having to spend more time and
money with the therapist to get help for some simple issues that you
could actually deal with on your own between sessions with
simple self-help techniques.
What is different about
the way I work?
♦
I am a Doctor of Clinical and Counseling Psychology. Among my
many certifications (I have 36 so far), I am also a Board Certified
Master Clinical Hypnotherapist
and a Board Certified Master Neuro-Linguistic Programmer plus Time
Line Therapy Master Practitioner.
In addition, I
have mastered advanced skills in TFT (Thought Field Therapy), EMDR
(Eye Movement, Desensitizing and Reprocessing) and EFT (Emotional
Freedom Techniques–also known as "tapping") plus many more.
You have
undoubtedly heard that we only use about 5% to 10% of our brain....
What I
do is show you how to access that other POWERFUL 90% to 95% of your brain to
easily and quickly reprogram the responses, emotions and behaviors
you want to change.
I teach you how to use altered states of
consciousness and cognitive and behavioral change work to take
control of your life for good.
All traumas are viewed only at the
subconscious or unconscious level (without conscious awareness or
reliving the trauma)
while being therapeutically defused.
This method helps resolve your
issues naturally, instead of re-traumatizing you in the process.
♦ More traditional psychotherapy
also known as the "talking cure," concentrates on using skillful
questioning techniques to help the client talk about and re-experience
the shock and emotional damage of their experiences.
One of the premises of psychotherapy is
to revisit old trauma and relive it repeatedly until the horrors of
it finally become desensitized.
Some current research is now
suggesting that this approach can make you worse each and every time
you relive the same trauma.
♦
I approach the work
I do from a multi-level perspective. That means that I teach you
simple effective management techniques you can use on your own to
help you to control your symptoms.
Then during our sessions, I guide
you through the deeper work to help you eliminate the distressing
issues by changing the root causes.
With my approach, there is no
struggle or will power needed–because change happens automatically
that is outside of awareness and at the unconscious level.
This can be
accomplished through advanced hypnotherapy, altered states of
consciousness, and may be supported by other energy work such as EFT.
You simply
experience a new sense of comfort, joy, energy and inner peace that you
didn’t have before.
Different Strokes for Different
Folks
There are a
multitude of different therapies available. Some are of the talking
variety; others give a cookie cutter recipe of exercises. Still
others follow a specific formula for helping their clientele.
There are many management approaches such as AA and the many offshoots
of that program. Even CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) is now
evaluated as only about 50% effective by leading experts and current
research.
Most of these
approaches rely heavily on using your will power for
change. If only one plan helped everyone, than there would only be
one plan.
By following the nudging of your
inner wisdom, you will be able to decide which way is right for you.
