Why Marriage Counseling?
Is your marriage in trouble? If so, then you're in the right place. The Family & Marriage Counseling Directory was designed specifically to be the best resource on the web for people in need of marriage counseling. When I created this site in 2003, there was a huge "marriage counseling" gap on the internet. If someone did a search for "marriage counseling," there were a few self-help type sites that showed up, but where were the marriage counselors and therapists? Click Here for our regional listings.

The Family & Marriage Counseling Directory was made to fill that gap. In the beginning we listed hundreds of therapists free of charge, just so people searching the web for marriage counseling and other forms of therapy could find therapists. The site was immediately successful, shooting to the top of the search engines within a few months. After a while, therapists started noticing and asked to be included. I'm proud to say that as of April, 2007 we have well over 300 therapists who advertise their counseling practices with our site, as well as many of the original counselors who were included for free.

Why the Internet?
More and more people use the internet every day. The internet is a safe and private place to look up information. According to demographical statistics provided by the Pew Internet & American Life Project, the more educated one is, and the more income one has, all increase the likelihood that one uses the internet. This population is also likely to seek marriage counseling. Hence, the enormous amount of traffic our site receives.

Do the Marriage Counselors Listed Here Get a Lot of Referrals?
Yes. Although the amount varies from state to state. The most popular regions are the Northeast US, and the West Coast (mainly California). The least trafficked places are states with low population and the Southern states. Although they all do get referrals.

Here are what a few of the advertisers have said:

First, I want to tell you how incredible your site is. I signed up a few weeks ago and my practice has increased already. I seem to be getting one or two calls each day from new clients that have found me as a result of your site. Thank you so much.

Second: I was wondering how I could edit my listing. I would like to make just a few changes.

A VERY happy subscriber, Judy

Chris,

I am an Internet marketing professional working with several marriage counseling clients all over the US. Your site consistently delivers the highest volume and lowest cost traffic. This traffic converts into quality leads for our clients. I look at our log files every week and your site is a top referrer to all of my client’s sites and the cost often works out to less than 20 cents per click. This is about one tenth the cost of Google Adwords. I would recommend your site to anyone who wants good traffic at a low cost.

Why Marriage Counseling?
The testimonials above are exactly why we target marriage counseling; it's one of the most popular phrases that people type in search engines when they are looking for help with their relationships. It's far from being all that our site shows up for though. We rank high for many other popular search phrases that people are using to look for help.
