Professional and Calming Website for a Counseling Center
CANVAS COUNSELING & WELLNESS
Canvas Counseling & Wellness, a counseling and wellness center in Plano, TX, initially approached me to migrate their website from Squarespace 7.0 to 7.1, seeking a fresh update and access to the latest features. Once the migration was complete, they decided to take it a step further and requested a complete design overhaul.
Their previous website was simple, featuring stock images and text on a white background. The new platform offered more flexibility, allowing me to create a truly custom and polished design.
I started by building a cohesive color palette and updating the typography. Their existing brand elements, like the gold logo and paintbrush strokes, provided the foundation.
From there, I introduced complementary shades of blue and refreshed their script font to a more sophisticated version (called Bitte). The curated images aligned with the new palette, evoking feelings of calm and serenity—perfect for a counseling practice.
To elevate their brand even further, I moved the partnership logos from the footer to a more prominent section of the homepage, showcasing their credibility. I also rewrote the hero section to ensure visitors immediately understand who Canvas Counseling & Wellness is and what services they offer.
All of the text was completely revamped to clearly highlight the client’s challenges and explain how Canvas Counseling & Wellness provides solutions.
Given that clients often feel overwhelmed when seeking counseling, I incorporated a three-step process to make it clear and simple how to get started.
The updated design is clean, modern, and approachable, with improved navigation that makes the user experience seamless. Additionally, I conducted a full SEO optimization, boosting their organic traffic and helping them reach more people.
The results? Since launching the new site, their monthly visits have skyrocketed by a whopping 416%. Amazing!

Nicholas Ratush's website underwent a remarkable transformation. He went from having a DIY-ed website with a bland color palette to a new website with a high-end logo and an eye-catching color palette that breathes life into the design. Now, Nicholas has a website he can proudly showcase that acts as a powerful magnet to draw in potential clients.
Nourish ETX needed a website and logo that mirrored the distinctive charm of their business. The website was designed with meticulous attention to detail. Original graphics featuring elegantly designed wine bottles were seamlessly integrated, ensuring an immediate visual allure.
Dr. Don’s website was not working for him at all - the color choice didn't match his brand, it lacked call to action buttons, only part of his inventory was listed, and the text didn’t identify the customer’s problems. I gave him a complete branding makeover - a new website, new logo, and new business cards.
