Reach potential clients where they spend time online—ethically and effectively.
15 minutes · No obligation · No pressure
Facebook ads can reach millions—but therapy advertising has unique challenges.
Considering Facebook ads for your therapy practice? Social media advertising offers massive reach and sophisticated targeting. Facebook and Instagram let you put your practice in front of people who might benefit from therapy—even before they start searching.
But Facebook advertising for therapy is complicated. Meta has strict policies about health-related advertising. Targeting options for mental health are limited due to privacy concerns. And many therapists aren’t comfortable with ads that feel intrusive or manipulative.
What you need is Facebook advertising designed for therapy practices. Campaigns that build awareness ethically, comply with platform policies, and attract potential clients without exploiting vulnerability.
Is This Right For You?
This is for you if:
- You want to build awareness beyond search
- You're comfortable with social media presence
- You have budget for awareness-building campaigns
- You want to reach potential clients early
- You appreciate ethical advertising approaches
- You want purely intent-based advertising (search is better)
- You have very limited advertising budget
- You're uncomfortable with social media advertising
This may not be right if:
- You want purely intent-based advertising (search is better)
- You have very limited advertising budget
- You're uncomfortable with social media advertising

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.
