- The GHI website has excellent search engine optimization (SEO), so when clients search online for mental health services, GHI comes up on the first pages of search results.
- Our most important referral source is word of mouth. Thousands of clients have successfully found the right help through GHI, and they recommend it to friends and relatives. In addition, GHI members who understand the importance of professional qualifications in a therapist, solely refer clients, friends, and family to other GHI members.
- We meet with partnering organizations who work with English-speakers to inform them of what we do. They appreciate having a reliable Association to which they can refer clients who need help. Hard copies of GHI's Mental Health Resource Guide are referenced as a resource in their waiting rooms and offices.
- Mental health professionals and organizations abroad are aware of GHI and use our online resource to refer clients who are moving to Israel.
- GHI has a strong social media presence including an active Facebook group called Find a Therapist.
