✅ What you get

Every record is one licensed provider:

• 📞 phone — the direct office phone, published on the public profile.
• 🪪 licenseNumber + licenseExpires + licenseState — the exact inputs a credentialing / license-verification workflow needs.
• 🧩 specialties — array of what they treat (Anxiety, Depression, Eating Disorders, Addiction, …).
• 🧑‍⚕️ name, credentials (LMSW, LCSW, PhD…), jobTitle (e.g. Clinical Social Work/Therapist).
• 📍 city, state, zip — practice location.
• 🎓 education — where they trained.
• 🖼️ photoUrl, 🔗 websiteLink (Psychology Today's outbound link), profileUrl, profileId.

👥 Who it's for

• 🩺 Teletherapy & provider marketplaces (recruiting licensed clinicians) — build targeted provider-recruiting lists by city and specialty.
• 🔐 Credentialing / license-verification SaaS — the licenseNumber + licenseExpires + licenseState fields drop straight into your verification pipeline.
• 🗂️ EHR / practice-management outbound to independent practices.

  "maxItems": 200
}

⚙️ How it works

It reads public Psychology Today profile pages and parses the schema.org JSON-LD each page ships — the same structured data search engines read. Listing pages are enumerated 20 profiles at a time and paginated automatically. Requests run over an Apify Residential proxy with fresh-IP retries for reliable results at volume. No browser automation, no login, no API key.

📌 Honesty note

Phone, license (number, expiry, state), specialties and address come straight from each public profile. Email is not published by Psychology Today — the site uses a contact form, so there is no email field. The websiteLink field is Psychology Today's outbound redirect link, not the resolved external domain.

⚖️ Notes & fair use

This actor reads publicly available directory listings. You are responsible for complying with Psychology Today's Terms of Service and with applicable privacy law (GDPR / CCPA) in your lawful use of provider contact data.
