Cork
Cork's private-practice market is growing, and the competition online is lighter than Dublin's
Cork's private-practice scene has grown steadily as more counselling and psychotherapy graduates, many trained through University College Cork, choose to build a practice locally rather than move to Dublin. That means more practices launching, but it also means the competition for search visibility is meaningfully lighter than in Dublin: a new site paired with a properly set-up Google Business Profile can realistically start ranking for local searches within months rather than years.
Cork practices commonly draw clients from across the city and out into the wider county and Munster, including Kerry, Waterford, and Tipperary. A booking system that makes both in-person and online sessions equally clear matters here, since a fair share of your caseload will be travelling in from outside the city, or would rather not.
We already know this market directly: Tommy O'Connell's psychotherapy and performance coaching practice, built with us, is based in Cork.
What Cork clients expect
- A Google Business Profile that actually ranks in the local Cork search results
- Clear in-person vs. online options for clients travelling from further out in Munster
- A site that builds search authority now, while local competition is still lighter than Dublin's
Testimonials
Stories from our clients
“I was only dipping my toe in before this. The website made me feel professional and that changed everything. Four clients in and I feel like there are so many more levels to go.”
“I was ready to take on private clients within the first month working with Karv.”
“Karv helped me word everything properly and added all the tech I would not have figured out alone.”
“It feels authentic to me, clearly communicates my work as a psychotherapist & performance coach, and has given me a platform I'm genuinely proud to share with others.”
Tommy's Success
CLIENT HIGHLIGHTTommy was building his counselling and performance coaching practice from scratch and needed a site that felt as credible as the work itself, not a template that undersold him. We built a brand and website that clearly communicates his dual focus as a psychotherapist and performance coach, giving him a platform he's proud to send people to.
Hi, I'm Danny McCabe
Most business owners I meet are brilliant at their craft and quietly exhausted by everything that surrounds it. The website that never quite does what it should. The booking system nobody showed them how to use. The tech that was supposed to save time and somehow created more of it.
I started Karv because I kept seeing the same pattern: talented people being let down by generic solutions built for nobody in particular.
What I build is specific to you. A website that reflects how good you actually are, connected to the systems that keep your business running without you having to think about them. I stay involved after launch because a website is not a finished product, it is a working part of your business.
If you want someone who cares as much about the outcome as you do, we will get along well.

The Old Way
A referral isn't enough
Referrals bring the best clients. But what do people find when they search your name? A LinkedIn profile. An old website. Or nothing at all?

The New Way
Our Process
We examine your business in detail to best serve you and your clients.
Each project is a living system, not a one-off website.
Our Work
We think most agency websites fail their clients.
Not because of bad design. Because they stop at design.
A beautiful website that sits disconnected from your booking, your payments, your client journey, is a brochure. It looks good and does very little. The businesses we work with do not need a brochure. They need something that works.
Every project we take on is built as a complete system. The website, the infrastructure behind it, the experience a client has from the moment they find you to the moment they book. We think about all of it.
That is a harder thing to build. It takes longer, costs more, and requires us to understand your business properly before we touch a single page. We are fine with that. It is the only way we know how to do it well.

Referrals are the best clients you will ever get. But when they look you up before booking, what do they find? A website built for therapists is not about finding new clients from scratch. It is about making sure the people who were already going to book you actually do.
GDPR compliance isn't optional and it isn't something anyone can sell you, it's a legal requirement for anyone holding client data, regardless of the size of your practice. Karv handles the website, booking and admin layer: you own your domain, your Google Workspace and your booking system outright. Session notes and clinical records need a dedicated practice management platform, an EHR, rather than a website or a shared drive, and we help you choose and set one up as part of onboarding. Nothing is locked into a proprietary platform. If you ever leave, everything stays with you.
A professionally designed website built for how a therapy site should actually work. A booking system connected to your calendar. Online payments so clients can pay before the session. A client organiser to keep your leads, enquiries and scheduling admin in one place. And ongoing support after launch because a website is a working part of your practice, not a finished product.
A website builder gives you a page that looks fine. What you actually need is a connected system that runs your practice: booking that syncs to your calendar, payments that clear before the session, intake forms that land in the right place, and a client organiser that keeps your admin out of your inbox. Free builders do not wire any of that together. We build the whole thing in one session so it works from day one, not after months of tinkering.
No. The system is built so that once it is set up, your only job is to show up and do the work. Bookings come in, clients pay, enquiries land in your organiser automatically. We walk you through everything on a call and send you a video so you can refer back to it. If anything goes wrong, we are still here.
Most practices are fully set up and ready to accept bookings within 30 days of your strategy call.
Yes. You can pay €3,000 upfront and save €600 versus the monthly plan. Both options are available at checkout.
