Today we're tackling a controversial subject: psychologists. Have you ever been to one, chances are you have? Personally, I've seen about ten of them in the last ten years for various reasons and I'll tell you why, I think 80% psychologists are a scam.
The different reasons
The first reason is that they often lack empathy and infantilize you. For 1 year, I went to a psychologist, who constantly told me what to do with passive-aggressive little phrases without really listening to me. In the end, one day I just never went there again.
Secondly, money. I remember a psychologist who made me sign a specific contract so she could bill me directly without going through the health insurance system, without explaining exactly what it was. As a result, I found myself being sued... I had to threaten to take her to court to stop the whole thing.
Thirdly, medication. A psychologist was convinced that I needed to take anti-depressants, even though I had specifically said I never wanted to take medication, because for me it was the beginning of the end. So one day, she backed me into a corner and said, either you take the meds or we'll stop.
Fourth, innovation. I've talked to federations of psychologists and psychological divisions in hospitals, and they're very closed to all alternative therapies. Often, for them, hypnotherapy, sophrology and other alternative methods are just wellness, at best. As if it had no impact whatsoever and they were all-knowing. Just because you've spent 3 years memorizing books doesn't mean you've got the solution.
It gives the impression that they have a state-given monopoly and just want to prevent any change.
My personal experience
I'm really speaking from personal experience, but really it's been a disaster with 8 out of 10 psychologists I've met. In fact, I've never felt better since I started seeing them. It's been a liberation.
That's why we've created OpenSynaps, an online alternative therapy platform where hypnosis, sophrology and many other proven methods are just a click away. And it's all completely free, in your own home and outside the health system, which often rhymes with scam!
