How do we get started?

The first step is a phone conversation to discuss your project and answer any questions you may have. You can send photos or schedule an in-home or virtual assessment which will help me get to know you, your space, your organizational challenges and goals. If we decide to work together I will create a plan based on your goals and budget and schedule time for the project.

How long will it take to get organized?

Once we discuss your organizing challenges and goals I can recommend a package of hours based on the scope of your project.

Do I need to be present?

This will depend on your personal preference and the nature of the project. I will need some input as to how you live with your belongings in order to set up organizing systems that work for you. Some clients like to work side by side, others give their input as needed and have me work independently.

Will I have to get rid of my things?

We will work together to assess what is working for you and what is preventing you from reaching your organizing goals. You decide what no longer serves you. If there are items you no longer need or want, I will help you donate, recycle or discard them.

I’m embarrassed, my home is a mess!

I work with a variety of people, each with their own organizational challenges, so no need to feel embarrassed! I am here to help and can more accurately assess your needs if I see your home as it is naturally. 

Should I purchase organizing supplies before you come?

It is better to wait until we have decluttered and made use of any items you may already have. I can then make recommendations for supplies tailored to implementing or maintaining your new systems.
