People frequently ask me what a Professional Organizer does. The simplest answer is, "We change lives." Sometimes in a big way, sometimes in small ways. But my goal with each of my clients is to make their lives simpler, more relaxed, more peaceful, and more fulfilling.

Organizing Assessment

Understanding the root causes of your clutter and disorganization dramatically increases your chances of success in conquering them! When you understand the underlying issues, the way you think about your stuff, your time, and your life begins to change. Once your thinking patterns start to shift, your behavior changes, and the process of getting organized becomes much, much easier.

During this assessment, I'll lead you through a series of questions that will give you a clear vision of the changes you want to make, and identify whether perfectionism, procrastination, lack of focus, poor time management, or other factors are part of the problem. We'll finish up by taking a look at the areas of your home where you'd like some help. After the appointment, you'll receive a summary clarifying your needs, and some tools and techniques you can put to use right away. This two-hour appointment is often life-changing for my clients. It's a wonderful starting point for getting organized and getting control of your life again!

Hands-on Organizing and Coaching

Having me work one-on-one with you is an extremely effective way of learning how to live a more organized life. I’ll teach you methods of approaching an organizing project, sorting through items, and deciding what to keep and what to toss, recycle, donate, or sell. I'll help you work through the sense of "overwhelm" that keeps you stuck. We’ll work side by side to declutter your home or home office and establish sustainable systems of organization that make sense to you.

For lasting change, it's vital that we continue working on the causes of the clutter. That's where life coaching comes in. I give my clients the skills, methods, and motivation they need to make lasting changes.

Once the initial organizing project is done, we’ll set up regular monthly or quarterly maintenance appointments to keep things under control and running smoothly, for as long as you need. I've worked with some of my clients for years, helping them to maintain their organizing systems and modify them as their lives change.

Filing Systems for People Who Hate Filing

If you want to take control of all the paper that comes into your home or office, this customized, intuitive system is for you.

During the initial appointment, we’ll design a filing system that’s completely tailored to your lifestyle, your family, and the way you think about information. Your papers can be stored in file folders, binders, expanding files, a combination of these, or in other ways that we determine will work best for you. It will include places to keep all of the standard papers such as taxes, insurance, banking, and medical records; but it also provides a place for things like receipts, magazines and catalogs, gift cards and coupons, cards and keepsakes, owner’s manuals, articles and clippings, decorating ideas, recipes, holiday planning, family history, and much more.

After designing the system with you, I’ll assemble it; complete with color-coding, a quick-reference guide, and easy-to-read labels. Click here for more information.
