Sycamores

Sycamores needed more than a website refresh—it required a profound strategic transformation to amplify its crucial mission of supporting underserved communities across Southern California. Previously hindered by outdated design, limited mobile functionality, and poor flexibility, Sycamores sought an intuitive, empowering digital platform to better connect individuals with vital mental health resources.

By diving deeply into user behavior, meticulously studying heatmaps, conducting insightful interviews, and performing targeted SEO audits, Sycamores’ new digital presence became a powerful gateway of support. These deliberate enhancements significantly improved usability and extended critical resources to over 18,000 vulnerable individuals.
