WebMD

Analysis of therapist search results for WebMD and their webmd.com website.

It also has a directory of medical professionals, including, you guessed it, mental health therapists.

Therapist Search Result Trends for WebMD

These graphs help show the general trend of how often and where webmd.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).

WebMD's appearance in therapist-related searches shows a steady presence, but it's not dominating the results. Its appearance score hovers around the low-to-mid teens, suggesting it shows up in a modest percentage of searches. This indicates that while it’s a recognized name in health information, it’s not a primary destination for finding therapists specifically.

Its strength likely lies in its broader health content rather than being a primary platform for connecting clients with therapists. So it's bound to show up in search results for therapists for that reason alone... everybody, it seems, knows of WebMD.

To see how WebMD 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.
