Fit Finder: a gentle next step for visitors who aren’t sure yet

Most visitors to a therapy website leave because they’re unsure, not uninterested. Fit Finder gives them a gentle next step, in your words.

Try it as a visitor would

This is the real tool, set up for an invented practice called Willow Counselling in Ealing. Answer however you like and see where it takes you.

Nothing you answer leaves your browser unless you ask for a summary by email.

Not sure if we'd be a good fit?

A few gentle questions about what you're looking for, so you can see how I work and whether it might suit you.

  • About 2 minutes
  • Your answers aren't saved unless you ask for a summary

If you're in crisis or worried about your safety, call 999, Samaritans on 116 123 (free, any time) or NHS 111.

The problem it solves

Most people who land on a therapist’s website are not sure yet. They are not sure whether therapy is for them, whether your way of working suits them, or whether they are “bad enough” to reach out.

So they read a page or two and leave, often to look at three other therapists who leave them just as unsure.

What Fit Finder does

Fit Finder is a short, gentle set of questions on your website, written in your voice. It asks what someone is looking for, not what is wrong with them: the kind of support they want, how they would like to meet, what matters to them in a therapist.

In about two minutes it shows them how you work and why it might suit them, then invites them to book a free call with you.

When you are not the right fit, it says so kindly and points them somewhere better. That honesty is part of why people trust it.

What you get from it

More first calls from the right people

Visitors who were unsure get a clear, low-pressure next step.

Warmer first calls

People arrive already knowing how you work, so the call starts further along.

Fewer calls that go nowhere

People looking for something you don’t offer are pointed elsewhere before they book.

It works while you are in session

Evenings and weekends are when many people finally look for help.

A gentle way to stay in touch

People who aren’t ready can ask for a summary by email and, if they choose, join your newsletter.

You can see it working

A short email each month shows how many people used it and how many went on to book.

What it never does

It is yours: your words, your branding, on your own website. And it has limits it never crosses.

No diagnosis, no scores

Every result is about how you work, never about what is wrong with the visitor. There are no symptom checklists and no clinical measures.

No answers kept without permission

The result is worked out in the visitor’s own browser. Answers are saved only if they tick a separate box saying so, and then they are encrypted on your website.

Urgent help on every screen

Every screen shows where to turn in a crisis: 999, Samaritans on 116 123, and NHS 111. The quiz never asks about risk and never tries to judge urgency.

How it compares

The quiz tools you can buy are built for sales funnels. The matching tools that exist match people to a directory, not to you.

How it handles people’s information

Answers to questions like these can show something about a person’s mental health. UK data protection law treats that as the most sensitive kind of personal information.

The safest design is not to collect it at all, which is why the result is worked out in the visitor’s browser.

If a visitor asks for a summary by email, they see three tick boxes, none ticked for them. Only the first is needed. Without the second, only their name, email, and result are stored.

Enquiries that don’t lead to a booking are deleted automatically after 90 days. Booked ones are deleted after two years, and you can delete any of them sooner.

The wording of each result is checked against the Advertising Standards Authority’s guidance on mental health claims.

Questions therapists ask

Who writes the questions?

We do it together. In a 45-minute call I ask how you describe your work, who you most enjoy working with, and where you send people you can’t help. I turn that into the questions and results, and you approve every word before it goes live.

Does it work with my booking system?

Yes. Each result can link to any booking page you already use.

Can I change it later?

Yes. One wording change a quarter is included. Larger changes are £60 an hour.

Does it diagnose people or assess risk?

No. It never diagnoses, scores, or labels anyone, and it never tries to judge urgency. It shows where to get urgent help on every screen.
