The client approached us with a vision to create a modern, emotionally grounded website for a Los Angeles-based therapy practice focused on relational depth therapy, LGBTQIA+ affirming care, trauma therapy, and support for entertainment industry professionals.
The goal was to move away from the cold, clinical feel often associated with therapy websites and instead create a digital space that feels safe, warm, trustworthy, and deeply human from the very first interaction.

The Challenge
Mental health websites often struggle to balance professionalism with emotional connection. For Rae Therapy Group, it was especially important that the platform:
- reflected the practice’s identity and therapeutic philosophy,
- created a welcoming experience for LGBTQIA+ clients,
- clearly communicated a wide range of therapy specialties and modalities,
- supported consultation bookings and lead generation,
- remained calm and easy to navigate despite a large amount of content,
- performed well across mobile devices and SEO search results.
Another important aspect was preserving an authentic and non-corporate tone while still presenting the practice as highly professional and trustworthy.
Our Solution
We designed and developed a custom WordPress website focused on emotional UX, accessibility, and conversion-oriented structure.
The experience was built around soft visual hierarchy, calming typography, spacious layouts, and intuitive navigation to help visitors feel emotionally comfortable while exploring sensitive topics related to mental health and identity.
Results
The final result is a modern therapy platform that combines emotional connection, clarity, and professional credibility.
The website now provides:
- a scalable foundation for future content growth,
- improved service discoverability,
- streamlined consultation requests,
- stronger brand identity,
- and a more engaging digital experience aligned with the practice’s values.
