Website Development- Care with Regard by Dr. Himanshi Bhola, Psychologist
When Ms. Himanshi Bhola, an Australia-based mental health counsellor, approached us, her vision was clear: the website needed to reflect the warmth, care, and empathy that defined her practice. Along with showcasing her expertise, she wanted a platform that could simplify client bookings and make her services more accessible across countries.
Our Approach
1. Translating Care into Design
We studied Himanshi’s ethos and founder’s note, then built the design around it. To bring out her calm, compassionate energy, we used a soft palette of lavender and beige, exuding warmth, safety, and reassurance. Clean typography and ample negative space added to the overall sense of clarity and ease.
2. Experience-Centered Layout
The structure was kept descriptive yet minimal, ensuring that visitors could easily understand her services while feeling at ease navigating the site.
3. Seamless Booking Automation
We integrated a streamlined booking system, allowing clients worldwide to schedule sessions effortlessly. This helped eliminate manual scheduling and created a smoother experience for both Himanshi and her clients.
Our Challenge
- Design an inviting digital presence that mirrors the calm and safety of her sessions.
- Integrate automation for appointment scheduling to reduce back-and-forth communication.
The Outcome
The final website feels calm, approachable, and professional — just like Himanshi’s counselling practice. It reflects her values while giving her clients a seamless way to connect with her.
Key Results
- Reduced manual effort for appointment scheduling
- Improved client experience with a simple, intuitive booking process
- Created a warm, empathetic online presence aligned with her counselling practice
- Expanded accessibility for clients across different countries
For us at Octopus & Jam, this project was a chance to demonstrate how thoughtful design choices combined with functional solutions can create a digital space that truly supports a healthcare professional and her mission.
