The Challenge
A trauma-focused psychologist based in Colorado had a beautiful website, a Psychology Today listing, and a few word-of-mouth referrals.
But despite ranking on page 2 for keywords like “trauma therapist Boulder” or “therapy for PTSD near me,” her client bookings were inconsistent.
She didn’t want to run ads.
She didn’t want to dance on TikTok.
She just wanted high-quality clients to find her and feel confident enough to book.
So she turned to a solution that works in 2025:
✅ Voice search–optimized content + high-intent service pages.
The Fix: One Page, One Goal
Instead of blogging weekly or redesigning everything, we focused on just one high-value service page:
Trauma Therapy for Professionals in Boulder, CO
“Evidence-based care for PTSD, emotional shutdown, and high-functioning anxiety.”
The page was:
- Written in natural, voice-friendly language
- Optimized around how clients speak, not how clinicians write
- Focused on the questions her clients were already Googling
Here’s a voice query that brought in traffic:
“Is there trauma therapy near Boulder that’s not just talk therapy?”
📌 High-Converting Teletherapy Website
The Results
Within 8 weeks:
- The page moved to position #3 on Google
- Visitors spent an average of 3:24 minutes on the page
- She received 2–3 direct inquiries weekly — all pre-qualified
There were no ads, no complex funnels. Just a page that matched real search behavior with clinical expertise.
📌 SEO for Therapists: Attract the Right Clients
Why It Worked
- Voice-Search Alignment
We structured the content around spoken queries like:
- “How do I know if I have trauma?”
- “Can therapy help with emotional numbness?”
- “What’s the best therapy for PTSD in adults?”
- Human Connection
The page included a short intro video of Dr. Levin. No script — just honesty.
Visitors got to see who they were about to trust.
