Two names that didn't used to show up for therapist searches have been climbing, and both are worth flagging.
The bigger one is Psynio, which we first called out a couple of editions back. It didn't stop -- in this week's search it was the single largest riser both over the week and over the month, pushing further up the top 30. For a name that was essentially invisible in our data a month earlier, that's a steep, sustained climb.
(A wrinkle, since we're writing weeks later: as of now, the Psynio site returns a server error. Back in mid-April it was clearly live and gaining fast, so something changed in between. We can't say what yet -- the later weeks should tell us.)
The second name is Dr. Leonardo (dr-leonardo.com), smaller and slower than Psynio but steadily climbing into the top 30. This one we did look at: it bills itself as an "all-in-one eHealth platform for healthcare professionals" -- a website builder, basically. We haven't verified how the therapist pages on it got there, so we're not assuming whether those therapists signed up or were listed without their say-so. Either way, the pages seem to live on subdomains like yourname.dr-leonardo.com -- and a subdomain like that isn't yours. Leave the platform (or never join by choice), and the address, plus any ranking it built for your name, stays behind.
Seen either of these come up for your own name? We'd like to hear about it.
This is a back-published edition, written during our catch-up after a pause this spring. The searches ran the whole time, so the data's all here -- and AI is helping with the writing.

LinkedIn and Psychology Today hold the top two spots, unchanged. The movement is below them: Psynio has climbed into the upper half of the table, and Facebook has now fully recovered the ground it lost during its long slide -- it's back near the top of the non-leader pack.

Psynio leads the biggest movers both over the week and the month -- unusual for a name this new. Dr. Leonardo shows up here too, a smaller but steady riser -- and, as noted above, a website-builder platform putting therapists on its own subdomains. Facebook and Healthgrades round out the month's gainers. Two new names climbing at once is the kind of thing this report exists to catch.

No change at the very top. Psychology Today still holds a bit over four in ten of the #1 spot for therapist searches, with LinkedIn filling much of the middle of the first page.
That's it for this week -- two names climbing to keep an eye on: Psynio (still surging, now with a broken site) and Dr. Leonardo (a website builder putting therapists on its own subdomains).
