The Goal
Samantha is finishing her training in hypnotherapy, NLP and energy healing and opens her practice in Spring 2027. She wanted a site that felt calm and welcoming, explained three very different services clearly, and could start collecting inquiries before she officially opens.
The Approach
We started with a client questionnaire covering her services, ideal clients, and the feel she wanted. She shared her mentors' websites as references, and I pulled the palette directly from her own brand colors: blush, beige, earth tones and sage. From there I organized her services around her real weekly schedule, so visitors can see exactly when and where each session happens, in person or on Zoom.
Design Decisions
- 01
Arch-framed imagery
A soft arch shape repeats across the site, echoing calm, sheltered spaces.
- 02
Editorial layout over template grids
Her three approaches read like a quiet magazine spread instead of a row of generic icon cards.
- 03
Honest by design
Until she launches, the site invites inquiries instead of showing booking buttons that can't be used yet.
Built With
Hand-built HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Hosted on Vercel. Search-ready metadata and structured data.
Result
The site is complete and in preview, ready to launch on her own domain when her practice opens.
