Key takeaways:
A well-designed website is intentional and thoughtful-each choice should convey something about you to your ideal client.
A design doesn’t have to be just one thing–in fact combining styles can give you a dynamic, uniquely-you feeling to your website!
A therapist website doesn’t need to be beige or plain. You can and should show your personality and do something a little unexpected to stand out in all the noise of the interwebs!
