Home Therapy: How your home can have a MAJOR impact on your life & what to do about it with Therapist + Interior Designer Anita Yokota
What would you do differently if you knew your home affected how you feel and there was scientific evidence to back it up? Spoiler alert, it does and we’re digging into how it works with Anita Yokota. Anita is a therapist turned interior designer and author of the bestselling book, Home Therapy. With a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy (LMFT), Anita spent 20 years and thousands of hours in the field counseling patients before realizing she craved a more creative path. "As a working mom, my emotional plate was full. I felt depleted and decided it was time for a change."
With an architect for a father and a real-estate mother, Anita knew interior design was her next calling. What started in her own home quickly expanded to design clients throughout Southern California and grew to include a contracting business with her husband. The pair live in Southern California with their three daughters.
Anita discusses where therapy and interior design intersect and how the domains in your home affect the relationships you have within it and the very energy felt when you walk through the door.
