TherapyHosting.com Offers Website Building and Managing Solutions in Partnership with the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT)
Woodland Hills, CA (PRWEB) October 13, 2007 -- TherapyHosting.com began offering mental health professionals a Web 2.0 solution for building and managing their Websites since spring of 2007 and now is partnered with the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT). TherapyHosting services are now a member benefit to all AAMFT therapists nationwide. TherapyHosting.com is also a proud sponsor of the AAMFT California Division and will be present at the 65th AAMFT Annual Conference in Long Beach, California on October 11-14, 2007 at the Long Beach Convention Center.
Dr. Kathleene Derrig-Palumbo, CEO of TherapyHosting.com, announced, "All AAMFT members are given the opportunity to build their own website and their first three months are free. We designed our services exclusively for licensed mental health providers. With TherapyHosting.com's Web 2.0 technology, mental health providers have everything needed to expand their face-to-face or online practice on the Internet."
According to Dr. Derrig-Palumbo, "Many therapists want to have an online presence, but building their own Website is too overwhelming given psychotherapy's legal and ethical considerations." As an international lecturer on the subject of innovative practice solutions for AAMFT and other psychology associations and organizations, Dr. Derrig-Palumbo has spoken to thousands of therapists worldwide and infused that input into the TherapyHosting.com service. "Therapists require more than a standard Website, and the kind of technology necessary can run hundreds of thousands of dollars to build from scratch. We make it extremely affordable for therapists to bring their practice online safely and quickly. Using TherapyHosting.com's MyTherapySite? Suite, a therapist can set up a Website in under 15 minutes that costs less than a dollar a day."
According to Gregory Palumbo, President of TherapyHosting.com, "Most therapists have no idea how in-demand their knowledge is on the Internet. As a perfect example, the most common health-related term typed into search engines is 'depression' and those results lead to pharmaceutical companies, government agencies and university resources. People are looking for relief from depression, which studies demonstrate is best provided by psychotherapy -- instead they are either being marketed drugs or provided generalized information. People would rather hear from the experts who are actively treating people and TherapyHosting.com makes this possible by putting Web 2.0-enabled Websites into the hands of therapists."
Therapists who already have a Website may use TherapyHosting.com's MyTherapySite? Virtual Office to add a virtual office to their existing Website. The virtual office allows clients to book and pay for sessions that can be held face-to-face, by telephone or online. For those therapists looking for a Web hosting solution for their existing Websites, TherapyHosting.com offers SecureTherapy? Web Hosting, which specifically takes into account the security and confidentiality requirements of the psychotherapy profession.
