Psychotherapy practices · Google Business Profile

Be found for the concern and the locality, without compromising discretion.

Google Business Profile management for a psychotherapy practice keeps hours, specialisations and location current, mindful that discretion matters more here than in most healthcare categories.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What Google Business Profile means

A Google Business Profile is the free listing that shows your address, hours, photos and reviews when someone searches for your business or a nearby competitor on Google and Maps. GullySales sets it up correctly, keeps it updated and posts to it regularly so it works as a steady source of calls and direction requests.

Last updated 5 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.

For psychotherapy practices

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “Clear specialisations improve the right match”

    Stating specific concerns treated, such as couples therapy, helps the right person find the practice faster.

  • “Discreet details matter in the profile”

    Photographs and descriptions are chosen to feel calm and private, not clinical or exposing.

  • “Reviews are handled with particular care”

    Given confidentiality, we do not run standard review-generation campaigns for this category.

What we do

What we deliver for psychotherapy practices.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. Specialisation categories set correctly

    Profile categories and services set to reflect specific concerns treated, such as couples or child therapy, for an accurate match.

    Result: The right person finds the practice for the concern they actually have.

  2. Calm, discreet photo selection

    A set of photos for the profile chosen to feel private and calm rather than clinical or exposing.

    Result: A visitor sees a setting that matches the discretion they expect.

  3. Hours and specialisation kept current

    Working hours and listed specialisations checked and updated whenever they change.

    Result: A visitor never finds outdated information about what the practice offers.

  4. Careful approach to the review section

    No active review campaign run for this profile, respecting client confidentiality, with only organic reviews left as they occur.

    Result: The profile is never used to pressure a client for public feedback.

  5. Profile activity report against the baseline

    A report of profile views and calls, checked against the baseline recorded before the work starts, with no client detail involved.

    Result: You can see whether the profile is drawing in enquiries for the right concerns.

How the result is measured

  • Profile views
  • Calls from the listing
  • Direction requests

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What the profile needs

What a therapist's profile needs to be accurate, and where discretion should limit what is shown.

An address clients actually visit
If clients come to a consulting room, show it. A practice that works only online has no premises to list, so a profile may not qualify. Check Google's current guidelines.
Category your qualification supports
Choose the category that matches your registered qualification, such as counsellor or psychologist. Titles are regulated, so check with your own professional body before using one.
Concerns named plainly, not diagnoses
List the concerns you work with, like anxiety, relationship difficulty or exam stress, in ordinary words. Do not promise cures or outcomes, and avoid diagnostic labels about individuals.
Rooms without anyone in them
Photograph the waiting area and the consulting room, empty and calm. Do not photograph the door of a building shared with others or anything that could identify a client.
Hours with the booking route
State consulting hours and say clearly that sessions are by appointment, with the route to book. A walk-in hint can bring someone in distress to a closed room.
The page for people in crisis
If someone in crisis might land on the profile, link to a helpline in the description. Do not present the practice as an emergency service.

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is reply time, a follow-up sequence, the page buyers land on or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the google business profile work runs

  1. 1

    Understand your locations

    We confirm every branch, its correct details and which categories genuinely match what it offers.

  2. 2

    Audit current profiles

    We check what is wrong, outdated or missing on each existing listing.

  3. 3

    Correct and complete

    Every profile is brought up to date, with services, hours and photos filled in properly.

  4. 4

    Implement ongoing activity

    Posts, photos and review replies are added on a regular schedule rather than occasionally.

  5. 5

    Measure and adjust

    We track calls and direction requests and adjust categories or content where a listing underperforms.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should we actively ask for reviews?
We recommend caution; a client's comfort and privacy come first, so we do not push for public reviews here.
How often does this need updating?
Hours and specialisations kept current; little else needs frequent change.
I see clients from my home. Can I hide my address?
If clients come to your home, Google generally expects that address to be shown, since hiding it is for businesses that only travel to customers. Privacy concerns are real, so some therapists use a separate consulting room. Check Google's current guidelines before you decide.
I consult at two clinics on different days. Can both be listed?
A profile suits a location where you are present in stated hours. Where you consult on set days at a clinic, check whether Google's current guidelines accept it. Do not list a place where you are not working, and do not duplicate your profile.
How do you handle marketing without using client stories?
Through the therapist, not the client. A page that explains your training, your approach and what a first session feels like does the work a testimonial does elsewhere. No identifiable client story is ever used.
Will this involve tracking individual clients?
No. Our reporting works at the level of enquiry volume and concern area, never by name, and we agree what is tracked before starting.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
