Build a Therapy Website That Makes Reaching Out Easier
Someone looking for a therapist wants to know whether you work with people like them, what sessions feel like, whether you have space and how to make contact. Your website should make those answers easy to find, especially on a phone.
You can build your own therapy practice website with AI, starting free. Add your real practice details to the prompt below to create your pages, explain your approach and give visitors a clear next step. If you already have an intake or booking service, connect the site to it. You can also build public resources, workshop pages and useful practice tools as your needs grow.
The first version is something to explore and improve. Check the wording, mobile experience and contact route before using it with clients. A custom patient portal is a possible later project with its own data and service requirements.

Step 1: Pick your platform
For this project, we recommend Base44 first, followed by Lovable and v0. Each can build a real website; the difference is how much setup and technical control you want.
| Platform | Why choose it for your practice site? | Paid building plan |
|---|---|---|
| Base44 | A guided website with built-in accounts and stored public practice settings, such as availability and service details. | Starter from $16/month billed annually. |
| Lovable | A custom site with editable code and the option to move its hosting or backend as your needs change. | Pro $25/month on monthly billing. |
| v0 by Vercel | A full-stack site with more deliberate choices about hosting, database and other services. A good fit when you want technical control or have help. | Plus $30/user/month; production hosting and connected services are separate choices. |
All three let you start building free. A paid building plan does not automatically include every service your practice needs. Prices come from our October 6, 2026 verification; the cost section below explains what to budget for.
Before you start, gather your practice name, exact professional title, services, session languages, availability, approved fee wording and chosen contact route. Include your own photos if you have them. You do not need to upload any patient material to describe the site.

Step 2 — Copy the master prompt
Replace every [BRACKET] with your own details before pasting.
Build a welcoming, mobile-first website for my therapy practice, with a protected owner screen for updating public practice information. MY PRACTICE - Practice name, my name and exact professional title: [DETAILS] - Verified qualifications or registration details to display: [DETAILS, OR LEAVE EMPTY] - Country, city, site language, currency and time zone: [DETAILS] - Who I work with and the concerns I help with: [MY APPROVED DESCRIPTION] - How I work: [APPROACH IN MY OWN WORDS] - Sessions and authorised service areas: [IN PERSON / ONLINE / BOTH, AND LOCATIONS I CAN SERVE] - Languages available in sessions: [LANGUAGES] - Availability: [ACCEPTING CLIENTS / LIMITED / CURRENTLY FULL] - Session length and approved fees/payment wording: [DETAILS] - First-contact process, response times and cancellation policy: [MY ACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS] - Practice phone: [PHONE] - Existing intake/booking link and client-portal link: [VERIFIED HTTPS URLS, OR LEAVE EMPTY] - Location, accessibility and arrival information: [APPROVED DETAILS] - Images: [MY SUPPLIED PHOTOS, OR NO PHOTOS YET] - Privacy notice and required professional/urgent-support wording: [REVIEWED TEXT, OR LEAVE EMPTY] PAGES AND JOURNEY 1. Home: who I help, how I work, current availability and one clear contact action. Show session languages and format before visitors need to dig. 2. About: a personal introduction in my voice and only the qualifications I supplied. Omit missing credentials, membership badges and portraits. 3. Working Together: specialties, what the first conversation involves, session format, authorised locations and practical access information. 4. Fees and Practical Questions: supplied session length, fees/payment wording, cancellation terms and short FAQs. 5. Contact: supplied phone and approved intake/booking link. Existing clients get a separate link to their existing portal when supplied. Use a calm, readable design with clear headings, good contrast, visible keyboard focus and comfortable spacing. Support RTL when appropriate. Use my own images where supplied; neutral atmosphere imagery may support the design but must not depict invented staff, patients or my premises. Avoid oversized empty portrait blocks. Do not invent testimonials, qualifications, treatment outcomes or insurance arrangements. CONTACT ROUTE Use direct links to the supplied intake/booking service. Do not copy its patient submissions into this app or pass personal details in URLs. If no booking link is supplied, use the practice phone and the actual first-contact instructions; do not create a fake calendar or booking confirmation. The first version stores public practice information only. Do not add a patient form, clinical records, patient accounts, uploads, payment collection or an automated therapy/symptom tool. OWNER CONTROLS Let the authorised owner update availability, public services, approved fees wording and contact destinations. Public visitors may read published practice details; only the owner may change them. Enforce this on the server. Use the platform's supported sign-in flow and return the owner to the editor after login. Do not create a guessed /login route or treat every signed-in visitor as an owner. FINISH AND CHECK Use supplied policy text and a short notice that this site is not monitored for emergencies. Do not invent crisis numbers or legal advice. Keep missing policy inputs in an owner checklist, not as unfinished public legal pages. Do not add advertising pixels or session replay. Give each public route a specific title, description and supported canonical/social metadata. At 320px, headings and contact actions must fit and fixed controls must not cover content. Test the public pages, contact destinations, owner save/reload, signed-out access and denial of writes by an unrelated account. Report passed, failed, inactive and untested checks separately, including any missing provider or plan setup.

How much does a therapist website cost in 2026?
You can start building free. Base44 Starter starts at $16/month billed annually; Lovable Pro is $25/month on monthly billing; v0 Plus is $30/user/month. Your total depends on whether you need a custom domain, more usage, a booking service or other business features.
| What you need | What to budget for |
|---|---|
| Public practice website | The building plan and any hosting usage. A simple first version can begin within a free allowance. |
| Your own domain | Registration and renewal, plus the builder's current domain-connection requirements. Check renewal terms separately from first-year offers. |
| Booking, intake or an existing patient portal | Your chosen service and its relevant plan. Keeping a useful care system may be better value than rebuilding it. |
| Custom patient application | A separate budget for suitable production services, implementation, agreements, review and maintenance. |
The figures are USD builder-plan prices from our October 6, 2026 verification, with billing periods stated. For a v0 project deployed on Vercel, business hosting has its own terms: Hobby is for personal, non-commercial use. Taxes, extra usage and connected providers can add to the cost.
Compare the complete workflow you need. A public website and a clinical practice-management system do different jobs, so we do not count your existing care subscription as automatic savings.
Start free: see your practice website before paying
Use Base44, Lovable or v0's current free allowance to explore a first version with your specialties, session languages, availability and contact route. The useful first check is concrete: can someone understand your practice and take the next step on their phone?
Base44 and Lovable support publishing on a platform address within their free-plan limits. More building usage, a custom domain and connected services may require payment. If you choose Vercel for a commercial deployment, its business-hosting rules apply separately. Explore the first version, test its important actions and then decide what you need next.
Build the part your practice needs next
Start with the questions that make contact easier. Who do you work with? What is your approach? Which languages and session formats do you offer? Are you accepting clients? What are the practical arrangements? If a professional directory already brings referrals, your own website can give those visitors a fuller introduction.
Add useful tools in small steps. An editable availability notice, public resource library, first-session guide or workshop page can be valuable without duplicating your care records. If you already use a booking or patient service, connect to it. SimplePractice documents both a website booking widget and a distinct existing-client portal journey; supported integrations are a real option, not something every practice must build from scratch.
Explore a custom workflow when you have a reason. The booking and CRM kits teach mechanics you can adapt, but storing identifiable therapy requests is a separate decision. Use a CRM for suitable professional contacts or non-clinical business enquiries; assess patient-specific use against the actual data, providers and local rules. A patient portal can be built with appropriate production arrangements and testing. Neither a generic kit nor a paid builder subscription establishes that setup by itself.
Make it local to your practice
- Israel: use your actual professional title, local contact details, NIS where relevant and a readable Hebrew RTL layout. Privacy Authority guidance addresses medical information sent through digital tools; review the services receiving that information.
- Brazil: use Brazilian Portuguese, BRL where appropriate and the actual CRP details for a psychologist. Keep fee wording within your advertising rules. Current CRP guidance reflects the end of mandatory e-Psi registration while retaining professional duties.
- United States: identify the profession and states served, and use your actual insurance/payment arrangements. HIPAA applicability and state professional obligations need their own assessment; do not apply them as worldwide rules.
- Spain: use your real qualifications and service area, appropriate Spanish wording and EUR where relevant. AEPD guidance explains responsibilities when professionals and providers process health data.
- France: use your real professional details and French wording. For outsourced clinical data, assess the applicable HDS hosting conditions; this is not a requirement imposed on every public information page.
These are country examples, not one rule per language. A translated site does not expand where you are authorised to practise. Supply local urgent-support information that you have checked rather than copying it from a foreign template.
Two honest warnings
- Choose where patient information goes before collecting it. Even a consultation request may reveal sensitive information. The starter uses your chosen care-service link or practice phone, so it does not create another intake database. Before adding patient forms or records, review the provider terms, access controls and complete data flow. A short form or privacy checkbox does not settle that question.
- Keep public claims accurate. Check qualifications, service eligibility, fees and descriptions of your work. The starter leaves patient testimonials out. Advertising and confidentiality rules differ by profession and country, so check those before adding them. A clear approach, genuine qualifications and practical information can establish trust without outcome promises.
