Therapists and counselors

Websites for therapists and counselors.

Someone looking for a therapist wants to read about your approach and your fees before they write to you, and that first message should stay private. If you have a site we can take it over, or we can build you a simple new one, and either way client details stay off it.

What we look after

What a therapy practice website has to do.

Keep first contact private

Someone reaching out for help may share more than a contact form should hold. We cut the website form down to a name, a way to reply and a short note, and point anything clinical to your practice software.

Link your client portal

Scheduling, intake and payments run on SimplePractice, TherapyNotes or something like them. We link or embed your portal on the site so clients can book without writing to you first.

Explain your approach

Clients read about how you work and what you treat before they decide to reach out. Send us changes to those pages whenever your practice changes.

Be clear about fees

Your fee and whether you take insurance are among the first things people ask. Putting both on a page saves you returning those calls.

Track as little as possible

Some clients would rather a therapist's site not track them. We can take out scripts you don't need and set up cookie consent with UserGuard.

Show crisis information

You can't answer every message right away, so the contact page should say what to do in a crisis. We put that notice beside the form.

What we often hear

What usually goes wrong.

  • Our contact form asks people to describe what they're going through, and those emails sit in a regular inbox.
  • The site still says I'm taking new clients, and I've had a waitlist for months.
  • The booking link went to an old page after we changed our scheduling settings.
  • The site is on a page builder I set up years ago, and I'm afraid to touch it.
A note from Ryan

The first message matters

I read a therapy practice's contact form the way a nervous first-time client would. If it asks them to describe what they're going through, I'd shorten it and move that question into your practice software. I also look at whether the site says you're taking new clients, since that line goes out of date more than any other.

Not sure what your contact form collects?

Send us your practice's site and we'll read through each form and see where it sends, then tell you what we'd change.

Plans

How much do you want us to do?

Every plan comes with the same developer and a free migration. Managed is month to month, and Managed + Website has a 12-month minimum because the new website is part of it.

Add-ons for either plan

Common questions

What people ask us.

As little as possible: a name, a way to reach them and a short note. Anything clinical should go through your practice software or a form service that signs a business associate agreement (BAA) with you. We don't sign BAAs, so we keep client health information out of the website's forms and backups.

Yes, through the system you already use. SimplePractice and TherapyNotes both give you a booking link or widget, and we add it to the site.

Yes. Let us know when you open or close your caseload and we change the notice on the site. It's a small change, so it fits easily in the monthly hour.

Yes. On Managed we move it over free and look after updates and backups while you keep editing it yourself. If the page builder has become more trouble than it's worth, Managed + Website gets you a new site that we edit for you.

What customers say.

Reviews from Trustpilot

A person could not find a better company for their internet needs. Customer service is number 1. Whenever we have an issue Ryan addresses the problem immediately no matter the time or day.
Cindy S.
Hosterr actually has a soul Hosterr is one of the few tech companies that I use that doesn't feel like it's trying to squeeze every last dollar out of you. It works well, easy to switch and the services are fair value for my. A great fit for my marketing agency digital environment
Adam C.
Great customer service! I have multiple websites hosted on Hosterr. Setup was seamless and super easy, customer service has always been fantastic and quick to respond. I've had 100% uptime with no issues. Would recommend Hosterr to anyone looking for a reliable webhost.
Nathan T.
I use Hosterr for multiple websites. I recommend them to anyone who needs hosting! I have never had an issue with downtime and my sites are blazing fast. Also their customer service is unmatched, leagues better than GoDaddy.
