Website Design

(Squarespace 7.1)

A structured, low-overwhelm approach to custom website design and business guidance

I offer one intentionally structured website design service for values-driven businesses who want a site that feels thoughtful, professional, and manageable — without a complicated or drawn-out process.

Whether you’re launching something new or redesigning an existing site, the work itself is the same: creating a custom Squarespace website that reflects who you are and supports how you actually run your business.

I work exclusively in Squarespace 7.1 and follow a defined, low-meeting process designed to keep things focused, collaborative, and realistic for people who already have a lot on their plates.

This is a good fit if:

  • You want a website that sounds like you and reflects your work

  • You’re starting a new business or ready for a thoughtful redesign

  • You value structure, clear expectations, and defined timelines

  • You want to feel confident managing your site after launch

  • You’re comfortable working within Squarespace 7.1 and paying their monthly subscription


    (between $18–$60, depending on your needs; most clients do well with the basic plan)

Support for clients just getting started

If you’re early in building your business, I also offer light guidance around foundational setup as part of the website design process. This may include a simple checklist and resources related to practice logistics, business setup, and how your website fits into the bigger picture.

This support is practical and situational — designed to reduce overwhelm and help you move forward with clarity, and define how your website fits into the bigger picture.

Feeling confident managing your site matters

I care a lot about you feeling confident making updates to your website once we’re done.

Part of my goal is not just to build your site, but to make sure you understand how it works. Businesses evolve, language shifts, and sometimes changes need to happen quickly. Being able to make small updates — adjusting copy, swapping an image, or updating information — can feel empowering, especially when you’re getting something off the ground.

Of course, I’m always available to help when you need it. But I want you to leave this process feeling capable and supported, not dependent on a designer for every small change.

How the process works

This service follows a clear, guided timeline — with flexibility built in.

Week 1: Getting started and first draft

After our consultation call, you’ll fill out a questionnaire and submit your payment. I will email you a structured intake and design guide. This is where you’ll share your content, select from curated design options, and answer a few key questions so we can begin with direction.

I then design your website behind the scenes.

We meet the following week to review the first draft, talk through what’s working, and make thoughtful refinements.

Week 2: Final refinements and launch

I complete final edits based on our review.

At the end of week two, we meet to review the final site, publish it, and walk through the Squarespace backend so you feel comfortable managing updates moving forward.

Please note: all intake materials need to be completed before your build can begin. If you need more time to prepare content, that’s completely okay — just let me know, and we’ll schedule a later start date.

Timeline

Projects can be completed in as little as two weeks, depending on how quickly content is submitted and finalized.

I designed this timeline with real business owners in mind — people who are excited to get started, but also balancing a lot already. If you’d prefer a slower pace, that’s always an option. We’ll set a timeline that feels realistic and supportive for you.

Clear expectations and upfront preparation help keep the process smooth and manageable from start to finish.

Investment

Website design projects are $1,000.

This includes a custom Squarespace website, a guided design process, and support to help you confidently manage your site after launch.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful, supported process — and a website built to grow with your business — this service is likely a good fit.

Ready to move forward?

If this approach feels like a good fit, you can email me to schedule. Once your spot is booked, you’ll receive a structured intake and design guide so we can get started thoughtfully.

I work in a low-meeting way, but I’m available via email throughout the process for questions, check-ins, and clarifying conversations between our two scheduled Zoom meetings. If you appreciate a focused process with steady communication, we’ll likely work well together.
