Behavioral Health & Addiction
The hardest patient-acquisition market in medicine, and the one our system was engineered in. Served through our behavioral health practice, Recovery Marketing Consultants.
Behavioral healthWe do not serve all of healthcare. We serve the verticals whose acquisition math looks like the one our system was built for — and we publish a sourced playbook on each before we sell into it.
A vertical earns a page on this site when it shares four things with the market our engine was built in. Demand is expensive or gated — bought in a crowded auction, rationed by a payer, or rented from an aggregator. The decision happens on the phone, usually with more than one person in the room, and it turns on how the first sixty seconds go. Advertising is regulated, so a generalist agency is a liability rather than a bargain. And the buyers are consolidated enough to fund a system instead of a campaign.
Five verticals pass on every count today. Six more are in the queue, each waiting on its playbook.

Behavioral healthOccupancy at 89.9 percent and rising (NIC MAP, 2Q 2026), yet aggregators still supply 33 percent of leads (WelcomeHome, 3Q 2025) and take 75 percent to more than 115 percent of a first month's rent when one moves in (Georgia Public Broadcasting, 2026). We fill communities from demand you already own.
Senior living16.1 percent of dentists are DSO-affiliated and more than one in four within ten years of graduation (ADA Health Policy Institute, 2024). Patients for every practice name, and the practices that are not for sale yet.
Dental DSOs313 private-equity deals worth $17.0 billion since 2019 (Vision Monday, 2024), in a market where routine exam volume is flat. Same-store growth under every local brand, and an owner pipeline that replaces the broker.
Eye care platformsRoughly $50 billion a year in PI medical spend with under 5 percent institutional ownership, where attorneys are the primary referral driver (Merritt Healthcare Advisors, 2026). A referral engine beats an ad budget.
PI healthcarePortfolio-wide installation, investor playbooks, and attribution that survives diligence — in a year when healthcare PE deal value hit a record $191 billion (Bain & Company, 2026).
PE sponsorsFertility networks · Home health and hospice · Autism and ABA therapy · Aesthetics · Dermatology · Physical therapy and MSK platforms.
Each gets a page when its playbook is published, and not before. If you operate in one of them and would rather not wait, tell us on a call — the engine does not change, only the vocabulary does.
Every industry page above is backed by a long-form, fully sourced analysis of that vertical and the system we would install in it. They are free, ungated, and written for the executive who runs the business.
