What I Hear From My Clients
Before:
“I know I should just do this myself, but it’s not happening. I’m overwhelmed and I don’t know where to start.”
During:
“This feels so good to be working on this! I just would never have started this without you being here.” and “Hey! Look what I found! I’ve been wondering where that went!”
Afterward:
“Wow we got a lot done! That feels so much better!!”
What You Need
You are busy. You need an objective, experienced person to help you get your stuff managed. Let’s work together to sort through and declutter your things. Then I can help you set up a system for maintaining your stuff, that works with your life and your daily routine. (That’s my favorite part of the process, where I can be creative and effective all at the same time.)
Then, with good systems in place, you can enjoy your possessions instead of struggling with them. It really will be easier for you to maintain that level of organization. If your household is managed well and running more smoothly, you can spend your time and energy on what you really want to do!
Professional Organizers design systems and processes based on established organizing principles. And, we teach you how to use them. Whether you need motivation with decluttering, or finding a better system for managing your belongings, or using your existing storage spaces in new, creative, and more efficient ways, I can help.
I like the saying, “Creativity is intelligence having fun.” I have so much fun making my clients’ houses more enjoyable to live in.
