What Jeanette's students have to say:

"I wish I learned all this before we bought our first house 25 years ago and before we had our children. Not only would our homes be more harmonious, but so would our lives together. It's amazing to learn how colors, lighting, sounds, and patterns affect us so deeply." -Angela Pederson, Palm Desert, California

"Jeanette's willingness, enthusiasm, and experiences will certainly "psych" you into getting started." -Dee Hydinger, Seminar Student, Menifee, California

More about Jeanette Fisher

Jeanette learned the hard way how our home's interior design details influence our happiness. After studying interior design at Orange Coast College, she thought she knew it all. Imagine how upsetting it was to remodel her kitchen in an 1878 Queen Anne Victorian and have it "feel" all wrong! Jeanette spent the next 15 years researching the psychology of residential design at the University of Florida and at Harvard University. Jeanette has a Bachelor's degree from Bethune Cookman College, Florida.
