Portuguese Membership Website — Juliana Magalhães Therapist
Industries
🎯 The Challenge
A mental health therapist serving a Portuguese-speaking audience needed a WordPress membership website that communicated professional warmth and emotional safety before introducing any commercial offer — a specific design challenge where the wrong colour palette, layout tone, or hero headline signals the wrong environment for prospective clients who are already vulnerable and considering reaching out for support. The site required three subscription membership tiers presented in a calm, non-aggressive comparison layout, a hero section leading with an emotionally resonant statement rather than a clinical service description, and a professional about section positioning the therapist personally rather than listing credentials in a CV-style format. Full Brazilian Portuguese localisation was required across all visible content — requiring layout review and text container adjustments for Portuguese copy length, which runs 20 to 30 percent longer than equivalent English text and causes overflow in Elementor columns and buttons sized for English. Three deadline extensions were required during the build, all accepted professionally by the client, reflecting the iterative design process appropriate for a project of this sensitivity.
💡 Our Solution
Built the full WordPress membership website using Elementor on a clean lightweight base theme. Colour palette selected in warm neutrals — soft terracotta, cream, and warm grey — creating a sense of psychological safety appropriate for a mental health audience. Hero section designed with professional portrait of Juliana positioned alongside the headline, establishing immediate personal trust. Initial English headline "Taking care of your mind is taking care of your life" refined to Portuguese "Cuidar da mente é cuidar da vida" during the revision round — localising the emotional tone to the target audience. Three membership service tiers presented in calm column layout without aggressive pricing table styling. Membership plugin configured with subscription parameters per tier and a clear checkout flow minimising friction between selection and confirmation. About section built with portrait and personal introduction rather than credential listing. Full Brazilian Portuguese localisation applied across all visible content during the revision round — all navigation labels, body copy, button text, section headings, tier labels, and footer updated. All text containers, Elementor column widths, and button sizes reviewed and adjusted for Portuguese copy length to prevent overflow and wrapping issues. Mobile responsiveness confirmed across all sections.
