Every therapeutic journey deserves a space that feels safe and welcoming. At Threshold Design, we specialize in designing environments for mental health professionals and wellness practitioners. 

  • A focus on comfort and relationship - Our thoughtful design elements help clients feel welcome, reducing initial anxiety and supporting the development of strong therapeutic relationships.

  • Therapist-Informed Design - Our designs are informed by over 25 years of clinical experience. We understand both the client’s perspective and practitioner’s needs. We offer you the opportunity to create a working space that reflects your values and therapeutic goals, potentially reducing burnout and increasing job satisfaction.

  • Inclusion-Focused - We design spaces that hold in mind diverse identities and needs as well as professional differentiation. Good design will help you stand out from clinical, institutional settings with warm, inviting spaces that reflect your commitment to nuanced client care.

This in turn leads to improved client retention. Comfortable, welcoming spaces create positive associations that encourage clients to continue their therapeutic journey.

Color Scheme

Together we’ll explore your personal color preferences while also considering a palette that supports the mental health needs of your client base. 

  • Soft colors promote relaxation and invite a gentle softening within clients who occupy the activated space of fight/flight responses.

  • Muted and earthy tones can help with grounding and provide a sense of emotional containment

  • Warm jewel tones can invigorate clients occupying an autonomic state of hypoarousal or dissociation.
