Sponsored Post Guidelines

Opinions, insight, research, case studies, interviews, company profiles, technology developments, bleeding-edge science. There’s so much happening and we want to hear about anything that helps people understand more about mental health issues and treatment.

And we’d love to hear from you. If you’ve got news, hints, tips or pointers to great stuff, then do drop us an email on [email protected]

Topics/Content

We don’t dictate length. If anything the shorter, the better – stop sniggering at the back – for the most part our community prefers 300 – 500 word stories, with an increasing number reading posts on their mobiles or tablets.

Hoxton Therapy covers a range of topics including, but not restricted to, the following areas:

Psychology
Counselling
Counselling break throughs
Counselling research
Neuroscience
Behavioural economics
Computational linguistics
Anticipatory computing
Neuromarketing
Big data
EEG and FMRI
Organisational psychology
Behavioural change
Nudge theory
User experience
Network analysis
Sentiment analysis
…and lots more

Aim for originality, even when covering established subjects – adding your own expertise may provide a fresh perspective on old stories. You might have heard them before, but we want to help introduce business and marketers to the subject.

We prefer blogs that show the arguments and cite the facts that led to the writer’s conclusion, drawing from all sides of the argument so the reader can decide for themselves.

Language / Tone

Please avoid any hint of racism, sexist or religious bias
Similarly, snide or nasty comments, or a condescending tone won’t go down well
Colloquialisms and slang are generally accepted, obscenity and vulgarity are not

Images / Videos / Infographics

We welcome the use of images, all images must be properly attributed AND have been credited.
Don’t be afraid of including graphs, infographics or embedding videos where relevant
Please make sure any images, videos or other content is properly credited with links to the source
Flickr (advanced search example) and Creative Commons Search are great tools for finding images to use, or you can use https://elements.envato.com/ as we have a subscription.
Each post should have a featured image – ideally 1920px wide or larger. If you can’t find one, don’t worry we can help.
