Therapist Search Result Trends for Facebook

These graphs help show the general trend of how often and where facebook.com is included in search results for specific therapists.

Appearance Scores
Average Positions

Note: Appearance Score is how frequently this website shows up (so a higher number means it's more popular or common), while Average Position is where in those search results this website is displayed (so a lower number means it's higher up on the page and more likely to be clicked).

Facebook seems to have a steady presence in search results when it comes to therapist-related queries. Its appearance score hovers around the mid-50% range, meaning it shows up in over half of the searches analyzed. This is a pretty solid level of visibility, especially for a platform that isn't specifically designed for therapist directories.

Some of these search results are probably for the professional profiles of therapists -- for themselves individually, for their private practice, etc. -- and some might be for their personal profiles. If it's the latter, that's a good area to investigate for yourself. Does your personal (and public) profile accurately represent you to potential clients? Because it might be one of the first links they click to learn more about you!


To see how Facebook stacks up against the rest of the popular therapist directories and other websites, read the latest edition of our Therapist Search Report.

Note: These statistics are intended to highlight broad patterns we've observed when searching for therapists by name. While we use a consistent methodology and a reasonable sample size, the results are not exhaustive. They may not reflect every search variation, every geographic region, or every change in search engine algorithms. This information should be viewed as a general snapshot, not a definitive or complete record. (And if you have ideas on how we can make our analysis even better, we'd love to hear them!)

Quill Therapy Solutions

About Quill: Quill helps therapists write clear, accurate, and professional therapy progress notes in less time. You record (or write) a brief session summary, and Quill formats those important details into a well-written note -- so you can focus on your clients, not your paperwork. And importantly, Quill does not record therapy sessions, so you don't have to sacrifice your ethics or your clients' privacy.

Also, therapists can now create their own custom documentation templates -- so whether it's an intake assessment, custom progress note format, or literally any other type of documentation, Quill has you covered.
