College Student Therapy Marketing
Help college students find therapists who understand their unique pressures.
15 minutes · No obligation · No pressure
Campus counseling centers are overwhelmed—students need more options.
Marketing your college student specialty? Today’s college students face unprecedented mental health challenges: academic pressure, social anxiety, identity exploration, financial stress, and transitioning to independence. Campus counseling centers often have long waitlists and session limits.
The challenge is reaching students who might not think to look off-campus, or whose parents are searching for options. You need to be visible to students, parents, and campus referral sources simultaneously.
What you need is college-focused marketing. Strategies that reach students through the channels they use, connect with parents who may be funding care, and position you as a specialist in young adult development.

- You specialize in college-age clients

- You're far from any campus

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.
