    What a therapy practice website has to do

    A prospective client arrives anxious and undecided, often at night, and needs to know quickly whether you help with their concern, whether you take their insurance, what sessions cost and how to reach out without a phone call. The site has to convert that moment into a consultation request or a client portal signup. What usually breaks on therapy sites is a page builder template with generic language about wellness, no specialty pages, fees hidden entirely, contact forms that are not HIPAA compliant and clinician bios without credentials or photos.

    Skyfield designs and builds the site, then the same team ranks it. Nothing gets handed off between a design shop and an SEO shop, so the structure, speed and content are right from the first day it is live.

    Built on the Right Platform

    WordPress fits most therapy practices because it supports specialty content, secure form plugins and EHR booking embeds while staying simple for a practice manager to edit. Wix works for a solo clinician who wants a lighter setup with built-in scheduling.

    Built to Rank From Day One

    The site launches with clean URL structure, schema markup, fast Core Web Vitals, tracking in GA4 and Search Console, and content written for the searches your customers make on Google and inside AI assistants.

    Website Questions From Counseling and Therapy Practices

    Website development is quoted per project based on the number of clinicians, specialty pages and integrations like secure intake and EHR booking. A typical practice site takes four to eight weeks from kickoff to launch. We scope it with you before quoting.

    Not when the migration is done properly. We preserve or redirect every existing URL, carry over titles and content that ranks, keep your Google Business Profile links intact and monitor Search Console after launch. Rankings fall when pages disappear without redirects, and we do not let that happen.

    Yes. We embed or link client portal booking from SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Jane and similar platforms so clients request sessions on your site and land in your EHR. Client data stays in your practice software and off the website.

    You own the domain, the site and every word on it. We set up hosting in your practice's name with full admin access, or deploy to hosting you already have. Nothing is locked to us.

    Launch gives you the structure, but rankings for specialty and insurance searches come from continued work. Our SEO and GEO plans add specialty content, clinician articles, citations, links and tracked AI prompts each month so the site keeps bringing in new clients.
