Anita Yokota

Licensed Family Therapist, Interior Designer, DIY Expert

Growing up in a household of an architect and real estate broker, she naturally fell into real estate and design. Her background helps people transform their mindset and family dynamic at home through her innovative Anita Yokota Method®. Her holistic approach incorporates both aesthetic principles and the psychological implications of design to create thoughtful spaces that best serve both the individual and larger household unit. Anita incorporates clean lines, California casual accents, and a talent for layering and adding depth through textiles. Since 2016, her relatable, positive energy and intuitive, distinctive eye for great design have attracted a passionate audience across Instagram, Pinterest, and her site AnitaYokota.com. Domino named Anita’s site the “Best New Design Blog of 2017” and HGTV chose her to lead design production for its 2019 Dream Home and Hidden Potential shows. Real Simple recruited Anita to design its 2019 “Idea Home” and she’s been featured in MyDomaine, Glitter Guide, Lonny, and many other publications. Anita resides in Southern California with her three fun-loving daughters and DIY husband Travis. After a bidding war between publishers Anita is busy working on her first book, Home Therapy, on pre-order now through Penguin Random House.
