In short
WebAutonomos builds websites for English-speaking psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, hypnotherapists and coaches practising in Spain. We write the copy from your information, show your Colegio and colegiado number if you are a psychologist, keep health claims and patient testimonials off the site, and use a contact form that doesn't ask for health details. It costs €15 + VAT per month with no setup fee and no lock-in, or a one-off €349 + VAT, in English and Spanish, plus up to two more languages (French, Catalan, Galician or Basque), at no extra cost. We work with you in English, and your demo is ready within 24 hours.
Spanish rules
What your website has to get right in Spain
In Spain, what you may say online depends on your title. A health psychologist is a regulated health professional; a counsellor or coach is not, and must not present their work as health care. These are the points that matter for a website.
| Who | Law | What it means for your website |
|---|---|---|
| Psychologist (psicólogo) | Ley 43/1979, art. 2; LSSI (Ley 34/2002), art. 10 | Membership of a Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos is compulsory to practise. Your website must show your Colegio and colegiado number, your official qualification, the country that issued it and, where it applies, its recognition in Spain, plus the professional rules that apply to you (such as your Colegio's code of ethics) and where to read them. |
| Health psychologist (psicólogo general sanitario) | Ley 33/2011, DA 7ª; RD 1277/2003, art. 6.2 | Health work requires the Máster en Psicología General Sanitaria (or the clinical specialist title) and a practice authorised by your regional health department. Any advertising that suggests health care, your website included, must show the registration number the region gives your practice. |
| Psychologist with a foreign degree | RD 581/2017; RD 889/2022; Código Penal, art. 403 | An EU qualification is recognised by the Ministry of Health; a non-EU one, including a UK one since 2021, must be homologated to the Máster en Psicología General Sanitaria by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (a bachelor's degree alone can't be). Practising as a psychologist without a title recognised in Spain is a criminal offence, and calling yourself one publicly makes it more serious. |
| Counsellor, coach, hypnotherapist | RD 1907/1996, art. 4 and 5.3; RD 1277/2003, art. 6.2 | These titles are not regulated, but your site can't present your work as health care: no promise of relief or cure, no claim to treat a condition, no patient testimonials used to attract clients. These bans also apply to anyone who presents their work as health-related. |
| Everyone: contact forms | GDPR, art. 5 and 9; LOPDGDD, art. 34 | Why someone wants to see you is health data. Your form should ask only for a name, contact details and a preferred time. A psychologist working alone doesn't need a data protection officer. |
Testimonials deserve a special mention: Spanish health-advertising rules ban patient testimonials used to attract clients (RD 1907/1996, art. 4.7). For a health practice, we build trust with your qualifications, your approach and practical details instead. This is general information as of September 2026, not legal advice: check with your Colegio and your regional health department.

Who it is for
What our clients say
On your website
What to put on your therapist or psychologist website
When someone looking for a therapist lands on your website, they need to see quickly who you are, how you work and how to reach you, whatever screen they are using.
What you do, in plain language
Your approach and the type of session you offer, in person, online or both, described so a stranger can understand it, without jargon or a promise of a cure.
Who you are, and why they can trust you
Your training, your years of experience and, if you are a psychologist, your Colegio and colegiado number (see the rules above).
How to get in touch
A contact form, a WhatsApp button or a phone number, so a visitor does not have to search for how to reach you.
A design that works on any screen
Many visitors will look at your site on their phone, so a design that looks good and works well on any screen matters, for them and for search engines.
For a longer read on structuring this kind of site, see our blog guide on the essential sections of a psychology website.
Different titles, different rules
Websites for psychologists, psychotherapists and counsellors
The website itself works the same way for every title; what changes is which claims the rules above let you make.
If you are a psychologist
Show your Colegio and colegiado number, plus your practice’s registration number if you work as a health psychologist (see the rules above).
If you are a psychotherapist
Describe your training and how a session works, without a promise of relief or cure: the bans on health claims in the rules above apply to anyone who presents their work as health-related, whatever their title.
If you are a counsellor
Like coach and hypnotherapist, counsellor is not a regulated title in Spain: write about support and personal development, not treatment.
Local search
How your website helps you appear in local searches
Getting found by someone searching for a therapist near them depends on more than the design: your copy and your Google Business Profile count too.
Basic SEO, included in your price
Titles and copy written around your services and your area, kept consistent with your Google Business Profile, come with your website at no extra cost.
SEO Local and your Google listing, if you want more
We also offer SEO Local for €15 + VAT a month, and managing your Google Business Profile for €29 + VAT a month (€49 + VAT to set one up if you do not have a listing yet).
Guides to go further
Our blog has practical guides on ranking your website locally and optimising your Google Business Profile.
Frequently asked questions
Can I call myself a psychologist in Spain with a UK degree?
Only once it is recognised. Since 1 January 2021, UK qualifications follow the procedure for non-EU countries: homologation to the Máster en Psicología General Sanitaria by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, which requires a bachelor's and a master's degree (at least 300 ECTS) and Spanish at B2 level. Recognitions granted before 2021 keep their effect. Until then, describe your degree factually: practising as a psychologist without a title recognised in Spain is a criminal offence (Criminal Code, art. 403), and publicly calling yourself a psychologist raises the penalty to six months to two years in prison.
Do I need to show my colegiado number on my website?
Yes, if you are a psychologist. Article 10 of the LSSI requires regulated professionals to show their Colegio, colegiado number, official qualification, the country that issued it and the professional rules that apply to them on their website. A health practice must also give its health authorisation details and the authority that supervises it.
Does my practice need to be registered as a health centre?
For health psychology, yes: a private practice needs prior authorisation from the regional health department and goes on the regional register (RD 1277/2003). Its registration number must appear in any advertising that suggests health care, including your website. The rules for online-only practice are less clear, so check with your region.
Can a counsellor or coach offer therapy in Spain?
Counsellor, coach and hypnotherapist are not regulated titles in Spain. You can offer support and personal development, but not health care: no diagnosis, no treatment of conditions, no promise of relief or cure, and no use of 'psychologist'. Spain's Ministry of Health has also classed some techniques, such as Ericksonian hypnosis, as pseudotherapies when they are offered for a health purpose.
Can I show client testimonials on my website?
For a health practice, avoid them: Spanish health-advertising rules ban patient testimonials used to attract clients (RD 1907/1996, art. 4.7), and the ban extends to anyone who presents their work as health care. We build trust with your qualifications, your approach and practical details instead.
Does my website have to be in Spanish?
No law requires the whole site in Spanish. Spanish consumer law does require pre-contract information, such as prices and terms, to be given at least in Spanish, and Madrid applies this to all information for consumers. In Catalonia, documents offering your services must also be available at least in Catalan. A short Spanish version of your prices and terms is the safe choice, and we build your site in English and Spanish, and in Catalan too if you need it, at no extra cost (up to four languages).
What should my contact form ask?
A name, a way to reach the person and a preferred time. Not the reason for the consultation: that is health data under the GDPR, and data should be limited to what is necessary. We add a short note asking people not to share health details in the form.
How much does a website cost?
€15 + VAT a month with no setup fee and no lock-in, or a one-off €349 + VAT, with the same services: design, hosting, a domain name for the first year, legal pages and one change a month. The demo is free.
