Sunset Therapy Center is a wellness center on Oahu's North Shore offering therapy, holistic health care, and somatic modalities under one roof. Before this project, the center had a website that only touched the surface of their brand voice. My job was to build one that better reflected them.

Sunset Therapy Center offers a lot. Therapy, accupuncture, chiropractic, message, reiki, memberships, and guided care pathways.
Too many options, if presented without structure, create confusion and dilute trust. The guests most likely to land on this site are arriving during a hard moment. They may be stressed, burnt out, or grieving. People with a full nervous system have less patience for finding the nuances between "somatic bodywork" and "energy work."
MAJOR DESIGN PROBLEM: "How do we organize care services to minimize cognitive load, while also prioritizing brand narrative in the process?

I built this as a nested navigation, with SERVICES as a parent and these four subcategories as its children, sothe categories are all visible and clickable from anywehre on the site.

The SERVICES page functions as a hub. Each category gets one plain-language sentence and a short, scannable list of what lives inside it, with a clear path to go deeper if the visitor wants to.
The idea was that a first-time guest should be able to recognize themselves in a category within a few seconds. Someone looking for grief support should see "Compassionate mental health care for healing, growth, and last change" under MIND and immediately know they're in the right place, without needing to already understand what a somatic modality is.

The TEAM page organizes specialists by modality, with banner navigation that lets visitors jump directly to the category most relevant to them. Each specialist has an individual profile card featuring their photo, name, and services, with a hover interaction revealing their professional background, areas of focus, and contact information.
The goal was to make a large caregiver directory feel approachable and easy to navigate, helping visitors find the right specialist without endless scrolling or having to sift through unrelated profiles.
