Clinical Psychology Office Design Note from Jeanette: I get ten times the calls
from psychologists than from interior designers.
How to Create a Clinical Psychology Office
Your Clients Will Love
by Jeanette Fisher
After years of college and preparation, you're ready to open a clinical
psychology practice. You know how to talk to distressed people, but do you know
how to design your office to support your client's emotions? How do you furnish
your office?
You don't need to go back to school. Design Psychology will help you reach your
goals to uplift, restore, and heal your clients through simple but specific
application/alterations in your office space. Design Psychology, based on
scientific research, helps create environments to stimulate desired emotional
outcomes through the use of a design plan formulated specifically for clients'
psychological needs. Design Psychology employs an understanding of the way human
senses respond to specific decorating details. Designers change and influence
the atmosphere with decorating details based on knowledge of the client's
lifestyle needs, including support for emotions, creativity, and productivity.
You can use the theories of Design Psychology to instill harmony in your
clinical psychology office. First, you need to think about your clients'
psychological needs in relation to your office space. You and your clients
benefit from a soothing atmosphere which promotes calmness, relaxation, and
uplifting joy. To support your clients' emotions, think about their five senses.
Then choose design details and furnishings which shore up the senses for the
desired emotional support.
