The Best Squarespace Website Templates for Therapists

Your website is often the first place potential clients get a feel for who you are. When someone’s looking for a therapist (or honestly, any type of business), that first impression matters. You want your site to feel trustworthy, clear, and aligned with your values and approach to care.

And while you could work with a designer to build you a custom Squarespace website, if you’d rather DIY your site, there are many amazing Squarespace templates you could use.

And whether your style is minimalist, cozy, or professional, we want to throw our hat in the ring.

So, in this article, we’re walking through five of our Squarespace templates that work especially well for therapists, plus a guide on what to look for when picking your own.

The five best Squarespace website templates for therapists

Rowan – Best Minimalist Template for Therapists

If you're drawn to minimalistic designs and open space with a touch of elegance, Rowan is worth a look.

This template embraces minimalism without feeling cold. There’s generous whitespace, simple fonts, and a layout that keeps distractions to a minimum. That makes it easier for potential clients to focus on what really matters: your message, your approach, and how you can help.

Rowan works well for psychotherapists, counselors, or coaches who prefer a quiet confidence in their design. Add in a few intentional photos and your website copy, and you’ve got a website that feels trustworthy, professional, and grounded. 

Ellis

Ellis is the kind of template that exudes warmth.

It’s soft, approachable, and perfect for therapists who want a more natural, earthy feel to their website. It has an inviting layout that feels less like an office and more like a retreat. And you can update it with the colors of your choice!

This template is great for holistic therapists or anyone who incorporates practices like meditation or mindfulness. Ellis will help you create a cozy, authentic vibe that helps clients feel connected right away.

If you want your website to feel personal and nurturing, but still polished, Ellis is a great choice.

Lawyer

Want a clean and professional, yet inviting look for your website? Lawyer gives you a great middle ground.

As you can probably tell by the name, this template was originally created for lawyers, but it works great for therapists as well. It has the most important pages that a therapist practice should have, whether you’re a group practice or a solo practice. And just add in your images and content and your ready to go!

Rooted

While created for life coaches, Rooted is still a great option for therapists and therapy practices. It has the relaxed, grounded feel of a boho design, and is great for businesses that want an earthy vibe.

The template offers beautiful layouts for storytelling. Whether you're sharing your approach, a personal bio, or educational blog posts, Rooted helps you build connection through thoughtful design. There’s room for testimonials, calls to action, and even embedded videos if you want to share a welcome message.

Rooted is a great choice if your practice needs a visual design that feels open, safe, and expressive.

Pillar

Need something that looks sleek, organized, and professional? Pillar is a clean, corporate-style template that feels like a well-run practice without.

This template makes it easy to feature your services, display therapist bios, and keep everything tidy. It's ideal for larger group practices, clinics, or therapy businesses that serve a range of clients and specialties.

What stands out about Pillar is its flexibility for scaling. As your team grows or your offerings expand, this template can handle the changes.

For therapists who want their website to say “we’re organized, credible, and ready to help,” Pillar checks all the boxes.

What to look for in a Squarespace template for therapists

Whether you choose one of our Squarespace templates or not, don’t only choose one based on looks, also think about its functionality. Here’s a deeper breakdown of what to prioritize as you browse templates:

Mobile optimization

More than half of all web traffic comes from mobile devices. That means your site isn’t just being seen on laptops, it’s being viewed on iPhones. If a potential client can’t easily read your site or tap to schedule an appointment on their phone, they’ll most likely leave.

The good news is all of Squarespace templates are ready for mobile. But some handle that responsiveness better than others. Look for templates where the mobile version:

  • Keeps text legible without zooming

  • Doesn’t stack images in awkward ways

  • Loads quickly

Always preview a template on both desktop and mobile before deciding, it’ll save you frustration later!

Customer support

Even the most intuitive website builder can be confusing when you’re in the middle of launching your practice or making changes on the fly. That’s where Squarespace’s customer support comes in handy.

They offer:

  • 24/7 live chat for immediate help

  • A thorough knowledge base with walkthroughs and tutorials

  • Community forums where you can learn from other users

If you’re building your website solo, solid support can prevent you from getting stuck for days. You don’t need to know everything, you just need to know where to get help when you need it.

Core pages every therapist website needs

Your website doesn’t need to have 30 pages to be effective. But it does need to cover the basics that make it easy for someone to learn about your business, understand what you offer, and reach out.

Here are the four pages you’ll want to have:

  • Home: Ideally, a visitor should know who you help, what you offer, and how to take the next step just by skimming your homepage. Keep it clean and focused and include calls to action.

  • About: Clients want to know the person behind the credentials. This page is where you build trust. Share your background, why you do this work, your approach, and if you have a team, provide their bios as well. A good “About” page can often be the deciding factor in someone reaching out.

  • Services: Break down what you offer in clear, client-friendly language. Include your specialties (individual, couples, group), pricing if appropriate, and FAQs about logistics like cancellations or how to get started.

  • Blog: Not a must-have, but a nice-to-have, especially if you want to build credibility or increase visitors to your website. A blog gives you space to share your thoughts, answer common questions, or explain your approach.

No-code or code-lite customization

One of Squarespace’s biggest selling points is that it’s made for non-designers and non-coders. Still, some templates are easier to work with than others. A code-heavy template might look great in a demo but leave you frustrated when you try to change something that is powered by code.

If you’re not knowledgeable about code choose a template that’s low-code or no-code.

Our top template customization tips

Once you’ve chosen your template, the next step is making it feel like you. Here are a few ways to customize your Squarespace site without hiring a designer:

  • Use brand-aligned colors: Choose a calming palette that reflects your therapy style: earth tones for grounding, pastels for gentleness, or bold neutrals for confidence. Whatever you’d like!

  • Add personal photography: Stock photos can work in a pinch, but nothing builds trust faster than photos of you, your space, or even soft detail shots that show what it’s like to work with you.

  • Tailor your fonts: Fonts subtly shape how your message feels. A soft serif font feels traditional and warm, a clean sans-serif communicates clarity and modernity. But of course, keep the font we used if you like it!

Even small tweaks to a pre-designed template can go a long way in making it feel authentic and more like you.

Want more help?

Whether someone finds you through Psychology Today, Google, or a word-of-mouth referral, your website should reflect your values, answer their basic questions, and guide them toward reaching out if it feels like a fit.

And the five templates we walked through each offer something different in terms of style and structure, so, if you’re a solo therapist starting fresh or a growing group practice, there's a Squarespace template that can help you show up professionally without a steep learning curve.

And remember, your website isn’t set in stone. It can grow and evolve as you do. What matters most is getting started and creating a website that supports both your clients and your business.
