Hey, I’m Denise…

Welcome to my world of color

I’m a color therapy expert, certified interior designer, speaker, trend forecaster, author & unshakable optimist, I’m dedicated to helping you and your family harness color’s healing power and live in optimum wellness through science-based Color Energy Medicine.

A born-and-raised San Diegan with a longstanding obsession with paint chips, I’ve cultivated a passion for Color Energy Medicine and a dream to teach others to utilize color to improve their mood, energy level, creativity, and overall well-being. 

I masterfully navigate two worlds of color. Hey, I’m a Gemini! I can do that. 

In one world of color, I’m an international, award-winning interior designer and colorist, and help businesses to drive sales with color. As an environmental color therapy expert and energy medicine practitioner, I also utilize color to empower others to heal themselves and their families.

I’m also the founder and CEO of the Color Turners, a full-service color and design forecasting, product development, marketing and strategic communication consulting firm based in Los Angeles whose mission is to turn the art of color into profit. 

ONE OF THE THINGS I’M OFTEN ASKED IS…

"How on earth did you get started in all this?”

We’ll have to begin this with the two most important people in my life, my kids. I’m the proud mother of two amazing adults, who as strong-willed children taught me how to overcome every gauntlet imaginable. They continue to lead me on the perpetual quest of self-discovery and self-improvement in search of no-harm healing modalities to support my family’s wellness.

Several years ago, I had an epiphany while attending my first energy medicine class. I was the only professional interior designer, surrounded by MDs and every kind of holistic healing practitioner, and was amazed to find out:  they all used color in their modalities!  Here’s the best part: color connected the dots between esoteric healing and scientific research. Thanks to modern science, we can now prove that these ancient healing modalities work. Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve had extensive color training in interior design school, but there was little emphasis given in my formal education to the importance of color on our health.

That’s when I truly understood the important role color plays in the built environment and dove more deeply into studying color science, eastern and Native American philosophies, and healing modalities. 

Thankfully my business clients sent me to places in the world to which my heart strings had a gravitational pull. From studying Buddhism in Taiwanese monasteries, to doing yoga and receiving treatments in Ayurvedic centers in India, to studying Shamanism and various Energy Medicine healing modalities, I embarked on a new passage in my journey with color. What I discovered was that all of these practices have one thing in common: color. More specifically Color Therapy!

WHICH BRINGS ME TO YOU

I'm here to be of service. My business is built on a bedrock of love and healing, a passion for what’s possible and a commitment to be an unstoppable force for good.

I’m an M.O.M. on a mission!  I’m concerned about our future generations and am passionate about helping others, especially parents and their kids. It was while I was in the thick of it raising my kids that I discovered the true power behind color and began using Color Therapy strategies to help my own children.

The resources I share have helped parents and other adults seeking new ways to help children of all ages—including those with serious physical or emotional issues—be healthier and happier through the use of color “therapy” and other natural remedies. There are so many easy-to-implement strategies backed by science to help with: anxiety, stress, sleepless nights, moods, energy level, creativity, productivity, ADD/ADHD, autism, etc.  

I believe in the science of this everyday element–from the color of your clothes to the colors of your environment and in the powerful ways it influences mood, energy level, creativity, and overall well-being.

Through my consulting business and writing, I am passionate about sharing the many practical ways to use stimulating reds, soothing blues, and every other color of the rainbow to your advantage and the advantage of any child you care about or are responsible for.
