Mental Health Marketing for Practices
We are a mental health marketing agency for group therapy practices, psychiatry clinics, telehealth providers and behavioral health treatment programs. People looking for care are often worried, private and short on time. We help them find you, understand what you offer and reach out, while keeping their information protected.
- Free 30-minute growth audit, no obligation
- Plans from $1,000 a month, month to month
- Reply to every request within 24 hours
Key takeaways
- Budget goes toward services with open capacity rather than programs with a waitlist.
- Addiction treatment ads wait for LegitScript approval, as Google and Meta require in the US.
- Forms ask for name, contact details and a good time to call, and nothing clinical.
Who Our Mental Health Marketing Services Are For
We work with group practices, psychiatry clinics and multi-state telehealth providers. We also work with programs that offer intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization or residential care. Solo clinicians can see our therapist marketing page.
Each level of care is chosen differently. Outpatient clients look for a specialty, a clinician they feel safe with, insurance they can use and an opening soon. Higher levels of care are often chosen by a family member, a referring clinician or a hospital discharge planner. Those buyers want to know about admissions, insurance verification, accreditation and what a typical day looks like.
We start by asking where you have capacity. There is no point paying for inquiries about a program with a waitlist.
Behavioral Health Marketing Across Search, Referrals and Reputation
Most people start with a search. We build clear pages for each service and condition you treat, reviewed by your clinical lead for accuracy. Our therapist SEO work covers the search side in depth.
The rest of the mix depends on your model.
Paid Search
We run search ads by specialty, location and insurance. See our Google Ads for therapists page for detail.
Directories and Listings
We keep Google Business Profile, Psychology Today and insurer directory listings accurate and consistent.
Referral Outreach
We send useful updates to clinicians, schools, employee assistance programs and hospitals that refer to you.
Reviews
We help you respond to reviews without confirming that the reviewer is a client, which HIPAA does not allow.
Social Content
We share general education and staff introductions, not ads aimed at people with a condition.
Ad Rules for Mental Health and Addiction Treatment
Ad platforms treat mental health as sensitive. Google does not allow personalized ads based on health conditions, so remarketing to people who read about depression or PTSD is off limits. Meta rejects ads that imply the viewer has a condition, such as "Struggling with anxiety?" We write about the service, not the reader.
Addiction treatment has stricter rules. In the US, both Google and Meta require LegitScript certification before you can advertise drug and alcohol treatment services. If you do not hold it yet, we can help you prepare, but we will not run those ads until you are approved.
We also follow the law on referrals. The federal Eliminating Kickbacks in Recovery Act and many state patient brokering laws restrict paying for patient referrals. We do not buy or sell patient leads, and we do not charge fees per admission.
Mental Health Digital Marketing That Protects Privacy
Most practices that bill insurance are covered by HIPAA. The US Department of Health and Human Services has issued guidance on tracking technologies on health websites. Substance use programs may also fall under 42 CFR Part 2, which adds stricter confidentiality rules for patient records.
We keep third-party ad pixels off intake and contact forms. Protected health information stays in your secure systems, and we discuss a business associate agreement before any work that could touch patient data. Forms ask for name, contact details and a good time to call, and nothing clinical. Meta also limits some data from health-related websites, which affects how campaigns are measured. Our marketing analytics service sets up tracking that counts inquiries without passing what people wrote.
We suggest a visible link to the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline on every page. Some visitors may be in crisis, and ads are not the right path for them.
How We Build a Behavioral Health Digital Marketing Plan
Step 1: We review your services, openings, insurance panels and licensed states. Step 2: We audit your site, listings, tracking and past ads. Step 3: We build a plan by service line and have your clinical and compliance leads approve it.
Step 4: We launch and review results weekly. Step 5: We report monthly on calls, inquiries and booked intakes, using counts without clinical details. We move budget toward the services with capacity.
Testimonials need care. Many clinical ethics codes discourage asking current clients for testimonials, and any patient story needs written HIPAA authorization.
Pricing and the Limits We Hold To
Programs start at $1,000 a month. Multi-location and multi-state groups are quoted after the free growth audit. Ad spend is paid to Google and other platforms separately.
Cost depends on the number of services and locations, licensing footprint, content needs and tracking work.
We will not promise a set number of clients, admissions or census levels. We are not your compliance officer, and you approve all copy and tracking. For our wider work, see our digital marketing agency page.

Mental Health Marketing Questions, Answered
Straight answers to the questions we hear most. Ask us anything else on the free audit call.
Yes, for Google and Meta ads in the US. Certification reviews your licensing, staff and practices, and approval can take time. Outpatient mental health services that do not treat addiction usually do not need it.
Only in limited ways. Remarketing lists built from condition-specific pages are not allowed on Google. Many practices skip remarketing and rely on search intent instead.
It depends on what your pixels and tools collect. We audit your setup and show where health information could reach an ad platform. Your privacy officer or counsel makes the final call.
Ongoing programs start at $1,000 a month. Cost rises with locations, levels of care and states served. We quote in writing after an audit.
