I help take the feelings of stress and overwhelm out of the decluttering and organizing process.
I'll lead the way from step one until your project is completed, doing the work with (or for) you, and helping you talk through decisions along the way. I will create an organizing system that is tailored specifically to you so that it’s easy for you to maintain. I'll even do the work of removing your donations for you so you don't have to worry about it.
Your space will be transformed into the relaxing and inspiring space you are dreaming of without having to do it alone.

Nope! I will never "make you" or "force you" to get rid of anything you don't want to get rid of. Letting go of items is completely your decision and I will respect whatever you decide.
When you need to make decluttering decisions, I’ll help you talk through the decisions so you feel confident with your choices.
-
Nope :) I know it’s hard to have someone see the clutter when you’d rather hide it behind a closed door, but this is something I love to do!
Leaving the piles of stuff helps me understand how to find the right solution for you.
And remember, I’m here to help you, not judge you! Besides, I’ve seen it all! Everyone has clutter in their lives. You are not alone!

Every client and every space is different. The amount of time needed often depends on how quickly you can make decisions about your items.
I will be able to give you an estimated number of hours your project might take once I see your space during your complementary In-Home or On-Site consultation.
I work hard for every minute we are working on your project so that you get a full return on your investment!

No. Organizing products and/or storage containers are not included in my fee. Products and supplies are in addition to my fee.
We will determine the need for organizing products/supplies after the decluttering phase of your project. You may or may not need any, and if you’d like, I’m happy to re-use the organizing supplies you already have. It’s up to you!
I can purchase any supplies you may need and invoice you for them (I never upcharge items), or I can supply you with a clickable shopping list to purchase them yourself.
-
I accept all debit and credit cards from Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. I also accept cash, checks, and mobile wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay.

Your sessions are very important to me, however, I understand there are times you might need to reschedule. I don’t charge a fee if you need to reschedule, as long as you give me a minimum of 24 hours' notice by phone call.
If you cancel or reschedule without giving 24 hours' notice, I may assess a fee up to the full amount of the scheduled session at my discretion. Although exceptions can be made regarding illnesses on a case-by-case basis.
Sick policy: If you or anyone in your home or business is sick with ANYTHING, please notify me as soon as possible to reschedule your session. I really hate being sick, and I wouldn't want to make my family or other clients sick. I promise to get you back on my calendar as soon as you are feeling better.

This is a perfect reason to hire a Professional Organizer! You won’t have to work on your project alone. I will help you and encourage you to keep going until we are done. My process makes getting organized fast, easy, and painless.
NOTE: if you feel like you can’t stop acquiring items or the thought of parting with your belongings makes you feel excessive anxiety, and if the clutter is taking up whole rooms and walkways in your home, then it’s time to speak with your doctor or a mental health professional as soon as possible. You just need the help of a caring professional who is specialized in this area. There is no shame in this! I wish you all the best as you take your first steps to healing! :)

You bet! Especially if we are working in their spaces. They will get to have input in their space and learn how to stay organized too.
However, very young children may slow our progress. I want you to get your money’s worth from our work sessions. So, I do recommend you have a sitter watch younger children.
