LinkedIn for Therapists
Build professional credibility and referral relationships on LinkedIn.
15 minutes · No obligation · No pressure
LinkedIn is different—and that's actually good for therapists.
Considering LinkedIn for your therapy practice? Unlike other social platforms, LinkedIn’s professional context actually aligns well with how therapists want to present themselves. It’s less about entertainment and more about credibility.
The challenge is knowing how to use LinkedIn effectively for a therapy practice. Most LinkedIn advice focuses on corporate networking or job hunting. Therapists need approaches that build referral relationships, establish expertise, and attract clients—without feeling salesy.
What you need is LinkedIn strategy designed for mental health professionals. Approaches that leverage the platform’s professional nature while actually serving your practice goals.

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.
