Important Announcements for March 7th, 2007

March 7th, 2007
A GoodTherapy.org Announcement

We’re writing with some important announcements:

1) GoodTherapy.org is pleased to announce that in our first two weeks we have over 100 therapists advertising their practice! Thanks for helping make GoodTherapy an instant success. We’re excited about influencing the mental health community in a positive way and for all the people searching for help who will find your listing. The world can sometimes feel in chaos and it’s a treat to know that many people, like you, are making the world a better place through you’re work. It’s been nice to read your profiles and see your faces. What a wonderful collection of people from around the world. I wish I could meet each of you personally.

2) We’ve updated the Elements of Good Therapy document today with two important elements: “Depth” and “Sometime We Can’t Help.” We hope that you will take a few minutes to view the elements, they’re also found here on our blog. If the new elements don’t accord with the spirit and philosophy of your work and you would no longer like to be listed in our directory click here to let us know. Of course, we hope that’s not the case, but we’d never expect anyone to stick with a group they don’t agree with. I don’t think we’ll have too many more updates to the Elements of Good Therapy document, at least not for a while.

3) We’ve added about a dozen new concerns to the list of searchable issues treated in therapy. Please feel free to log back into your listing and add the concerns you address to your profile. If and when there are more concerns added we’ll let you know.

4) We’ll be adding a handful of therapy models to our list within the next week. Thanks to all of you who have introduced us to other ways of helping or reminded us of ways we overlooked. It provokes awe when I see all the creative and powerful ways of helping that exist.

5) The Good Therapy Blog is live and ready for your feedback! Feel free to read our posts and make comments if you wish. For those of you with your own website, feel free to leave a link to your site on our blog when you comment. Back-links will help your site rise in the search engine rankings and be found by potential clients.

Lastly, we ask that you please help us grow by letting your friends and colleagues know about us.

Thanks so much,

Noah Rubinstein, LMFT
Founder and CEO
