Help LGBTQ+ individuals find the affirming care they deserve.
15 minutes · No obligation · No pressure
LGBTQ+ individuals need affirming therapists—help them find you.
Marketing your LGBTQ+ affirming practice? Finding a therapist who truly understands LGBTQ+ experiences isn’t easy. Many community members have had harmful experiences with providers. They’re actively seeking therapists they can trust to be affirming.
The challenge is reaching community members and communicating genuine affirmation. Being listed as “LGBTQ+ friendly” isn’t enough—people want to know you truly understand their experiences. Your marketing needs to convey authentic competence and welcome.
What you need is marketing that reaches the LGBTQ+ community effectively. Strategies that communicate your genuine affirmation, reach community members where they search, and help them feel confident you’ll provide safe care.

Trusted by Mental Health Professionals
Mental Health Marketing has helped me build several websites for my businesses over these last few years. I've been thrilled with their work and believe their designs have greatly contributed to the success of my practices (I get lots of compliments on the websites!). Both Aaron and Josh are also great to work with–warm, creative, and very reasonable with their pricing.
I've worked with Aaron Carpenter and his team for several years and have been nothing but impressed with the way that they keep the project going to meet the goals I have set. Aaron has created a team of professionals who really know what they are doing. They are terrific project managers who make sure the job gets done right within the scope that we agreed on. I love Mental Health Marketing!
I can not say enough good things about Mental Health Marketing. They helped me take a nugget of an idea and explode it into a seven figure business. They offer concierge level service. Design work is top notch. In a world of "good enough" workmanship – Mental Health Marketing is that rare company that is never satisfied and always striving for perfection.
