Find your Colour & Design Psychology Consultant

Over the past few years, Applied Colour & Design Psychology has become an established specialism in the creative and design world.

As more industries recognise the need for human-centred, nature-led design, the role of colour is evolving beyond aesthetics. It’s become a crucial tool in shaping experiences, emotions, and guiding behaviour.

Many design professionals working in biophilic design, sensory design, neuroaesthetics, and neurodiversity-focused fields are recognising that something is missing.

That missing piece is Applied Colour & Design Psychology. It’s the key to deepening the connection between people, true nature, the environments they inhabit, and the products and materials they use within them.

As more professionals train in this approach, I created the Find A Consultant page, so they can be easily found.

If you’re looking for a designer or creative who’s trained with me in the fundamentals of Applied Colour & Design Psychology, this is where you’ll find them.

Why being trained in Applied Colour & Design Psychology matters

There’s a huge difference between understanding colour & design psychology in theory and knowing how to apply it effectively in real-world scenarios.

You can read about how colour & design influences perception, emotion, and behaviour, but that doesn’t mean you know the complexity, the nuances, or how to use it strategically.

It’s like reading a book about riding a bike. You might understand balance in theory, but until you get on and ride, you haven’t developed the skill.

Every consultant listed on this page has completed my Advanced Colour & Design Methods for Industry Professionals course – a six-month, in-depth training programme.

Not everyone who takes this course passes. Only those who successfully complete the required work at certificate level are listed here.

These professionals have undergone structured learning, practical application, and assessment – far beyond simply reading about colour psychology in a book.

Since launching this course in 2015, I’ve trained interior, graphic and textile designers, marketers, branding professionals, product designers, architects, personal stylists, colour trend forecasters and artists from around the world across 20+ countries.

This page brings together a selection of those professionals, and I continue to add more as they complete their certification.

You’ll also find me there, applying these principles across multiple industries globally, working directly with clients, and continuing to refine the methods, frameworks, and processes I teach.

One of the things I love about this specialism is that it can be used in any industry and can enhance and complement any field of work.

There’s no business that doesn’t use colour.

Why This Matters

Applied Colour & Design Psychology isn’t just about making things look good. It’s about understanding how colour and design shape the way people feel, behave, and interact with their environment and the word around them.

Colour and design are always at play. The difference is in the depth of understanding and the ability to apply it in a way that delivers measurable, positive psychological and behavioural outcomes.
