For therapists
A therapist website that sounds like you
Describe your practice in your own words. Spanli builds a quiet, unhurried site — how you work, what you help with, fees and practicalities, and an enquiry form that reaches only you. Change any sentence by saying what's wrong with it.
You type “A private therapy practice in Bath, in person and online, evening appointments” — and Spanli assembles the site in front of you: opening, fees and practicalities, the room, make contact. The changes receipt reads: Added: 4 sections — opening, fees and practicalities, the room, make contact.
Sound familiar?
Someone is reading with their thumb at eleven at night, deciding whether to write to a stranger.
What they find is your row on a directory: a headshot, forty words, and thirty-nine other people underneath. The paragraph is one you wrote in 2019 and don't recognise. Your evenings belong to clients and supervision, not to a website builder.
How it works
What Spanli does about it
In the demo beside each claim: the site Spanli built; then new enquiry arriving in the Spanli inbox; then the initial consultation line being corrected — you click it, type “first consultation is free now”, and £40 becomes Free.
Your words, arranged well
Say how you work — modality, who you see, what a first session is like — and a finished draft appears while you watch. Nothing is published until you say so.
A private way to make first contact
The enquiry form takes a name, a way to reply, and a line about what they're looking for. It goes to your Spanli dashboard — no public comments, nothing anyone else can read.
Rewrite quietly
Work on a paragraph for a week without the world watching, and publish when it's right. Earlier versions are kept if you change your mind.
Everything on it
What your practice's site includes
A site with no shouting
Choose the feel from a live panel: colour, typeface, spacing, how much movement. Calm is a setting, not a fight with a template.
Fees and practicalities in one clear place
Session length, fee, concessions if you offer them, in person or online, how cancellation works — text you edit like filling in a form.
The client-reviews section is there by default and most practitioners take it out
One click, and it's gone.
- A quiet opening — who you work with
- How you work: your approach and what a first session is like
- What you help with
- Fees and practicalities
- Your training, registration and background
- Where you practise, in person or online, and your hours
- A private enquiry form
Two ways in
Start from what you already have
Describe door
Most practitioners use the describe door — a few sentences about your training and your approach.
Modernize my site
Your directory profile text works fine as a starting point; paste it in and improve it from there. Have an old practice site? "Modernize my site" rebuilds it from its address without losing what you'd already got right.

In case you're wondering.
Can clients book and pay for sessions on the site?
No. Spanli doesn't run a diary or take payments. The form is a first enquiry; you reply and arrange the session the way you already do, with whatever you already use.
Is this a safe place for what someone writes to me?
Keep the form to first contact — a name, a way to reply, a sentence about what they're looking for — which is what the default wording asks for. Submissions go to your dashboard, visible only to you and anyone you've deliberately invited. Spanli is a website, not a clinical records system, and nothing on it should be used as one.
I'd rather not put my face on it.
Then don't. Photos are optional everywhere, and the site is designed to read well without them. Your words are doing the work.
Can I write it myself?
Yes — every line is editable, and you can rewrite by typing what you want changed. Many practitioners let it draft the structure and then replace the wording entirely with their own.
What does it cost?
Your first site is free. Paid plans add your own web address — searched and bought inside Spanli — and higher-quality build options.
