Digital business card for therapists

People choose a therapist quietly, often from a referral, and read about you before they reach out. Give them one link that says what you work with, where you are licensed, what it costs and how to book a first call.

How clients find a therapist, and where the card is read

Choosing a therapist is private and often slow. Someone is given your name by their doctor, finds you in a directory, or hears about you from a friend — and then they read about you, sometimes more than once, before they get in touch. Your card is part of that quiet reading, usually on a phone and often late in the evening.

The questions they are trying to answer are practical: do you work with what I am dealing with, can you see me where I live, in person or online, what does it cost, do you take my insurance, and do you have space for new clients. A card that answers those plainly makes the first message easier to send.

Referrers need the same thing. A doctor, a school counsellor or another therapist who cannot take a client wants one link they can pass on, which opens without an app and shows how to book a first call.

What a prospective client looks for on a therapist's card

Where your card gets opened

How the client finds youHow the card reaches themWhat they need to see first
Referred by a doctor or clinicThe referrer passes on your link or prints the QR codeWhat you work with, fees and insurance, how to book
Referred by another therapistYour link is sent because they are full or it is not their areaWhether you have openings and your license location
Found in a directory or on your websiteOpens the link from your profileSession format and how a first call works
Met at a workshop or community talkScans the QR code on the last slide or a handoutSave-contact button, then how to book
Current client, between sessionsOpens the contact they saved at the startYour current phone, office address and hours

The same link works in every row, and edits reach all of them.

What changes, and why an editable card suits a private practice

A practice changes in small steps: you open or close your caseload, start offering online sessions, get licensed in another state, change your fee, join an insurance panel or leave one, or move office. Each change makes a printed card slightly wrong, and a card that still says you have openings when you do not sends people a message that goes unanswered. With CompanyCard you edit the card once and every link, QR code and saved copy shows the update.

If you have one card to run, the free plan covers it: one card with QR and link sharing, your profile, links and socials, and an Apple or Google Wallet pass. The free card carries a small CompanyCard credit. Pro removes that credit and adds lead capture and analytics, so you can see whether the link you gave a referrer is being opened. See pricing for the full plan list.

One thing the card is not: a place for clinical information. It is a public page, so keep intake forms, notes and messages in the systems you already use for client records.

Setting it up

  1. Open the builder and add your name, credentials and practice name.
  2. Add what you work with in plain words, where you are licensed, your session format and your fees or insurance.
  3. Add a booking link or contact for first calls, a line about current openings, and a short line asking people not to share personal details on the card.
  4. Put the link in your email signature and directory profile, and send it to the doctors and colleagues who refer to you, so they can pass it on without retyping anything.

Frequently asked questions

What should a therapist put on a digital business card?

Your name, credentials and license type, where you are licensed to practise, what you work with in plain words, whether you see clients in person or online, your fees and insurance, whether you are taking new clients, how to book a first call, and a short line asking people not to share personal details on the card.

Can clients send me private information through the card?

They should not. A digital business card is a public contact page, not a secure messaging or records system, and CompanyCard does not describe itself as one. Use the card to point people to how you want first contact to happen, and if you use lead capture, collect contact details only.

Are there rules about how therapists advertise?

Often, yes. Licensing boards and professional bodies commonly set rules on how titles and credentials are shown, on testimonials and on advertising claims, and they differ by profession and location. Check the rules that apply to you, and edit the card's text to match them.

Can a group practice give every clinician a card?

Yes. Each clinician can have their own card with their own specialties, license details and booking link. For a practice that wants one locked design across everyone, see digital business cards for teams.

Do the people I share it with need an app?

No. The card opens in any browser from a link or a QR code, and the reader saves your details to their contacts with one tap.

Is it free?

Yes. The free plan includes one digital business card, a QR code and sharing link, your profile, links and socials, an Apple and Google Wallet pass, and unlimited updates — free forever, no credit card. Free cards carry a small CompanyCard credit; removing it is part of Pro.
