Can you make the ad from only my Google Business Profile?

Yes. The first video is cut from the therapy practice’s profile alone. It can use visible photos, rating, review count, hours and review snippets. A complete service category, accurate hours and a clear practice name help the video explain what a prospective client can do next.

Will the video reveal confidential client information?

The ad uses information already visible on the public Google Business Profile, but review snippets still need careful handling. Choose excerpts about communication, comfort or booking rather than diagnoses, personal histories or treatment details. Do not add claims that identify a reviewer as a current client or describe their care.

What if my therapy practice has very few photos?

The video can give more space to your rating, review count, hours and carefully selected review language. A headshot, logo and one office image may be enough to establish the practice. The edit should not repeat weak photos simply to fill time when the profile’s social proof is stronger.

Which video format works for a therapist’s profile ad?

Vertical video is 1080x1920 and suits phone-first placements. Horizontal video is 1920x1080 and suits wider placements. Both render at 30fps in H.264. Choose based on where prospective clients will see the ad, while keeping the rating, hours and booking action readable.

How do I make a video ad from my therapy Google profile?

Sizzledraft opens your Google Business Profile in a headless browser and captures what prospective clients already see: your practice photos, rating, review count, hours and selected review snippets. It then uses those real screenshots and the profile’s visual cues to author a short scene. The first video is cut from the profile alone, so it works best when your practice name, service category and contact details are current. Later videos can follow a prompt, such as focusing on first-session nerves or evening availability. The finished file can be vertical at 1080x1920 or horizontal at 1920x1080, rendered at 30fps in H.264. The tone should remain calm and factual, especially when introducing counselling or psychotherapy services.

What should a therapist video show when the photos are weak?

Lead with the evidence that is actually strong. For many therapists, that means the Google rating and review count rather than a small set of waiting-room photos. A video can open with the rating, show the number of people who left feedback, and then use short review excerpts about feeling listened to, comfortable or clear about next steps. Avoid turning those excerpts into treatment claims. Office photos can still establish a quiet setting, accessibility or the entrance clients should look for, but they do not need to carry the whole ad. Keep the practice name and hours visible, then close with a simple action such as checking availability or visiting the profile. This gives nervous prospective clients useful proof without overselling the space.

How can therapy ads address first-session nerves safely?

Describe the practical experience, not an expected clinical outcome. A useful therapy ad can acknowledge that making first contact feels difficult, then explain what the profile confirms, such as opening hours, location and how to reach the practice. Review snippets may support a calm tone when they discuss communication or the booking experience, but they should not expose sensitive details or imply that every client will respond the same way. Avoid naming conditions unless the therapist’s profile clearly lists that service. Keep visuals steady, use readable text and leave enough time for viewers to absorb each point. Audio is normalised to -14 LUFS. If a trending sound is relevant, it is handed over as a link to attach natively rather than being baked into the video file.

What the browser actually gets

Our browser captures the therapy practice’s photos, rating, review count, opening hours and visible review snippets from its Google Business Profile. The review count is often more persuasive than the photos because many profiles contain only a headshot, logo or quiet office interior. Review language also needs careful selection so the video does not suggest anything about a named person’s treatment.

The common mistake

A common mistake is filling the ad with slow office photos while hiding the practice’s strong review count. Lead with the rating and review count, use brief non-sensitive review snippets, and let the photos support the setting rather than carry the message.
