Most marketing agencies serve a dozen industries. We serve one. Behavioral Health Partners exists to build, launch, and scale behavioral health centers, and nothing else. That depth is the moat: we know what frightened families type into Google at 2 a.m., we know what a payer mix does to a keyword strategy, and we know what it takes to fill beds without ever compromising the dignity of the people those beds are for.
Every family that lands on a treatment center's website is asking two questions: do you have what I need, and can I trust you. Every operator who lands on ours is asking the same two things. This page is our answer to both.
A few minutes with our founder on what a specialist partner actually does differently.
Our core values:
Live With
Integrity.
Serve With
Excellence.
Change The
World.
Those are not wall decorations. They are the filter every partnership, every campaign, and every word we publish passes through.
Most agencies pick a lane. We built the whole road. Wherever your treatment center is today, there is a clear next step here.
Addiction Treatment Consulting
From feasibility study to financial modeling to state licensure to Joint Commission accreditation, our consultants walk you from idea to open doors. We can have your website up three months before license, and by the time you are open, you already have calls.
Drug Rehab Marketing
SEO, paid media, web design, content, and creative video built exclusively for addiction treatment and behavioral health centers. One goal: more of the right admissions calls.
Joint Ventures
For the right operators, we go deeper than services: equity partnerships where our growth is tied to yours. We are not a vendor you pay. We are a partner with skin in the game.
We run every digital channel that fills beds, and we run them as one connected system, delivered with excellence and your clients and families in mind. Every channel below is built for one audience only: addiction treatment and behavioral health centers.
Organic search is where frightened families start. We build the topical authority, service pages, and local signals that put your center in front of them first.
Families are asking AI where to turn for treatment. We strengthen your content, credibility, and website structure to help AI search tools discover your center and include it in relevant answers.
LegitScript-compliant campaigns that produce admissions calls while your organic engine compounds. Why would we rent what we can own? Paid fills the window until you do.
Your website is your admissions team's best closer or its biggest leak. We design sites that answer a family's two questions in the first screen.
Your website, search presence, and campaigns built into one system, so your center's own assets bring admissions calls straight to your team, tracked to the source.
Content written for the frightened family and the serious operator, never filler. Every piece builds the authority your money pages rank on.
A human, dignified social presence that builds trust with families and referral partners before they ever call.
Real faces build trust faster than any headline. Our creative team produces the video and photography that make families feel safe before they call.
More admissions from the traffic you already have. We find where calls leak and fix it, measured in real admissions inquiries, not clicks.
Every number below comes from a real client's data tracking software. We show the screenshots, not stock charts, so you know you can trust the numbers. When our trust strip says Verifiable Results Only, this is what it means.
Opening a treatment center is a licensing project, a real estate project, a clinical project, and a financing project all running at once. We have done it ourselves, and our consulting team walks you through every step in order:
100+
Licenses secured nationwide by Dr. Angela McMahon and our licensing team
100%
Success rate: every application submitted has resulted in a secured state license
20+
States of licensing expertise
6 months
Average time saved in the licensing process
And here is the part you are not used to: our fastest license came through in just over 2 months after application, most states average 4 to 6, and New York and New Jersey can take 12 to 24 months. We will tell you which one you are in on day one.
Doing your homework first? Start with our guides on how to open a rehab center and what it costs to open a rehab center.
The best marketing in a market can only belong to one center. So that is how we operate it. We accept one client per level of care, per market, and we confirm your market is open before partnering with you.
Why would we give two people the best marketing?
Exclusivity is structured by level of care: a detox, a residential center, and a PHP or IOP in the same metro can all be partners, and we build warm referral relationships between them so the whole continuum wins. If your market is taken, we will tell you on the first call, and we will not take your money.

You have built businesses, developed properties, or managed investments. Now you want to bring that experience into addiction treatment. Our ideal consulting partners bring business acumen from another industry and want experienced behavioral health professionals beside them as they build their first rehab center.
Behavioral Health Partners helps you connect your vision with the financial, clinical, and operational planning required to open a treatment center.
01
You understand property, development, and location. We help you evaluate whether a site fits your intended treatment program, assess the market opportunity, and plan the facility requirements involved in turning a property into an operating rehab center.
02
You know how to build a business and turn a plan into action. We bring the addiction treatment expertise to help you develop the business model, identify leadership needs, assemble the team, and prepare for licensing, opening, and admissions.
03
You understand capital and business fundamentals. We help you evaluate market demand, startup costs, staffing expenses, reimbursement assumptions, and operating projections so your investment decisions reflect how a treatment center actually works.
04
You bring a long-term ownership perspective and experience evaluating businesses. We provide the behavioral health expertise to assess the opportunity, plan the operating model, identify qualified leadership, and establish reporting that supports informed oversight.
Our strongest partnerships combine your business experience with our knowledge of addiction treatment. Together, we work toward a financially sustainable center built around quality care, capable leadership, and a clear plan for growth.
Adam Vibe Gunton is the founder and Managing Partner of Behavioral Health Partners: a person in long-term recovery, bestselling author of From Chains To Saved, TEDx speaker, and founding member of Radix Recovery in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, which had one of the most successful treatment center launches in history.
Nine years ago, he was the person your admissions team exists for, calling every treatment center he could find and getting turned away. That is why this company exists, and it is why he still says:
I am your clientele.
You cannot stop people in recovery from helping people in recovery. You just cannot.
Adam is not a licensed clinician. His authority is lived experience, sustained recovery, and a decade of building in this industry.
Every person on this team serves one industry and one mission. Meet the people who will actually be doing the work.

Behavioral Health Partners builds, launches, and scales behavioral health and addiction treatment centers. On the consulting side we handle feasibility, proforma, state licensing, and accreditation. On the marketing side we run SEO, paid media, web design, content, photography and video exclusively for addiction treatment and behavioral health centers across the United States and Canada.
Three things. We do only addiction treatment, so the depth is real. We are built by people in recovery, so the judgment is lived, not researched. And we publish verifiable results only: real clients, live Search Console data, no stock charts. Transparency in all we do with a mission to build access to treatment.
Addiction treatment is our core, and we also serve the broader behavioral health category, including mental health facilities and programs. If your organization cares for people struggling with addiction or mental health conditions, we speak your language. If it does not, we are not your agency.
We will not market two competing centers against each other. A detox, an inpatient center, and an outpatient program in the same metro can all be clients because they serve different levels of care, and we build warm referral relationships between them. Why would we give two people the best marketing?
Our promise is 30 days to value: a finished deliverable in your hands inside the first month, often your new website. Google Business Profile and reputation work often moves inside 30 days, Map Pack shifts typically show in 60 to 90 days, and competitive organic terms usually stabilize on page one in 4 to 6 months. Anyone promising faster is guessing.
Thirty minutes on video with Adam directly, camera on. He screen-shares your current online presence and your top three local competitors, tells you plainly where you stand, and confirms whether your market is available for a partnership. There is no pitch on the first call.
We offer 6-month and 12-month partnership terms, and pricing is quoted on the second call once it is scoped to your center. We do not trap people in contracts. Our word holds the relationship together, not a clause.
Yes. That is what we do. Our consulting team takes you from feasibility study through proforma, licensing, and accreditation, and our licensing team has secured more than 100 licenses nationwide with a 100% success rate. We can have your website up three months before license, so by the time you open, you already have calls.
One Conversation. No Pitch.
Thirty minutes on video with Adam directly, camera on, screen-sharing your own online presence and your top three local competitors. If we are not the right partner, we will tell you that too.
We take one client per level of care, per market. We confirm your market is open before partnering with you.
