The Grounded Self
A counselling practice website with Telegram community integration
2025The Grounded Self is a Tauranga-based counselling practice run by Caleb, working with teens and adults through anxiety, trauma, overwhelm, and life transitions. He needed a professional website that reflected his therapeutic approach and connected with his existing Telegram community.
I built the site on Statamic, giving Caleb full control over his content, services, and testimonials. The key feature is a custom Laravel integration with Telegram's API that sends contact form notifications directly to Telegram instead of email, so Caleb gets enquiries instantly on the platform he already uses.
