That’s a great question! There are actually many different types of professional organizers who do different kinds of work. Here’s what you need to know about my approach to organizing:

Organizing goes beyond tidying your space.

While a tidy home is nice, simply making a space look neater isn’t a long-term solution.

As a professional organizer, I work with you closely to understand the root causes of disorganization in your home and design systems to help you overcome those challenges.

I take your physical, emotional, environmental, and family circumstances into account.

I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to organizing. I will find an approach that works for you.

Every client and every project is unique.

I create a custom plan based on your needs, which may include:

• Helping you identify items you no longer need or want in your home, and donating, reselling, or discarding those items

• Designing and organizing storage spaces that work for you

• Choosing and shopping for organizational and storage products to optimize your space

• Packing in preparation for a move

• Accountability and check-ins to help you reach your goals

• Strategies and recommendations to keep you organized

I do not provide house cleaning, move large items such as furniture, or install storage furniture or fixtures (but I can refer you to people who do.)

There’s an organizer out there for everyone.

I work with a wide variety clients, including adults with ADHD (I have my Level 1 Certificate of study in ADHD from the Institute for Challenging Disorganization.)

I work best with clients who are interested in personal development and investing in their well-being.

I do not specialize in working in significant hoarding environments. If you or a family member are in this situation, I would be happy to provide a referral to an appropriate organizer.
