Psychotherapy

Kofax Agency managed Google Ads campaigns for a psychotherapy and mental health practice in Chicago, focusing on generating high-intent leads and increasing therapy appointment requests. The project included full Google Ads account setup, local Search campaign development, and ongoing optimization to attract users actively searching for psychotherapy and counseling services. The primary objective was to deliver a consistent flow of qualified inquiries while maintaining an efficient cost per lead in a sensitive and highly competitive healthcare niche.

Challenge

The practice needed to attract clients who were ready to book therapy sessions while carefully controlling ad spend and lead quality. The key challenges included:

  • High competition for psychotherapy and counseling-related keywords
  • Ensuring leads were relevant and ready to schedule appointments
  • Managing cost per lead in a healthcare-focused niche
  • Filtering out low-intent or irrelevant search queries
  • Implementing reliable tracking for calls and form submissions
