PsychologyToday Scraper (Apify Actor)

There is also Psychologytoday Scraper - Per per results (10$/1000) but if you plan to scrape more than 2000 results, this rental actor makes more sense. Scrape PsychologyToday listings by category and US state with optional details enrichment. Fast Cheerio parsing for list/profile pages, and Playwright only for opening the PT “website” interstitial and extracting therapist-site emails.
