Calm Squarespace Website for a Multi-Therapist Counseling Center
Zion Counseling Center
Anthony Lopez, Ed.S., LMHC, is a licensed marriage and family therapist and the founder of Zion Counseling Center, a practice offering individual, relationship, and family therapy across multiple locations. Tony has already bought the Bento Squarespace Template for his personal professional website, as well as Template restyle services, a couple of months prior. When it came time to build a second website for the center's expanded team, Tony returned to Applet Studio – re-purchasing the Squarespace Template Bento along with our template restyle package. Here's a look at the design we created for him.
The color story we built for Zion Counseling Center is soft, grounded, and immediately reassuring. Warm sage green anchors the design – appearing in full-width section backgrounds, CTA buttons, and the navigation bar – while creamy off-white and muted taupe fill the content areas. It's a palette that communicates safety, which is exactly the right first impression for a multi-therapist counseling practice serving people navigating anxiety, trauma, and relationship difficulty.
The rounded corners of the Bento template used on image frames and section containers throughout the design soften the layout further, reinforcing a sense of approachability that square-edged layouts simply can't achieve in this niche.
One of the key design challenges for a multi-therapist practice is presenting a team without making the site feel impersonal. Our design handles this through a clean three-column team grid on the homepage – headshots, names, and roles presented with enough breathing room to feel like introductions rather than a staff directory. The About page then expands each team member individually, giving the founder his own full-width section and pairing it with a dedicated clinical focus list and approach overview.
The Services architecture follows a similarly thoughtful logic: a master All Services page lays out Individual Therapy, Relationship Therapy, and Family Therapy in alternating full-width panels with numbered labels, while a second tier of service buttons – Anxiety Therapy, Teen Therapy, EMDR, Group Therapy – points to additional individual service pages. It's a structure that scales cleanly as a practice grows.
The stock photography selections throughout the design are carefully chosen for emotional resonance rather than literal subject matter. Hands held between two people, a person sitting in warm afternoon light, a couple in quiet conversation – these images evoke the emotional states therapy addresses, without depicting a clinical setting. The tones coordinate well with the color palette, keeping the overall visual feel cohesive across all pages.
Our design for Zion Counseling Center shows how the Bento template can be restyled to serve a professional multi-therapist practice – warm enough to feel safe, structured enough to handle a complex service offering, and composed enough to reflect the quality of care the team provides.
