Startup Nation, Meet:
Jessica Tappana
Jessica Tappana believe in the power of therapy to transform lives when clients are able to easily find the therapist who is the right fit.
In addition to her private practice in Missouri, Jessica founded Simplified SEO Consulting to give mental health professionals the resources they need to get their website ranking well and in front of more of the clients they love to serve.
Jessica's favorite part of running Simplified SEO Consulting is watching her SEO Specialists grow their own skills even beyond her own and hearing the success stories of former clients who now have a steady stream of calls from the right clients.
