Your Tucson-Based SEO Expert for Mental Health Practices & Beyond

Elaine Bulawin | Founder of Desert Skies Local SEO LLC

👋 Meet Elaine

Elaine BulawinElaine Bulawin

Hello! I’m Elaine Bulawin, founder of Desert Skies Local SEO LLC, based in Tucson, Arizona. I relocated from California during the height of the pandemic, and my family quickly fell in love with Tucson’s warm, welcoming community, rich cuisine, and breathtaking desert skies—hence the name Desert Skies.

During that time of uncertainty, I watched many therapists struggle to reach the people who needed them most. That moment of clarity launched my mission: to help mental health professionals get found online—ethically, confidently, and consistently.

Today, I help practices across North America build visibility and attract ideal clients through a mix of local SEO, Google Ads, and content strategies rooted in empathy and professionalism.

“Elaine is an absolute pleasure to work with! She is very communicative, adaptable, always meets deadlines, and produces high-quality work. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for SEO and content support!”
