Do I really need a professional organizer?
We all have different strengths and weaknesses. And we all like to do things we enjoy. So, if we have a task that seems daunting, boring or overwhelming, we tend to put it off or even avoid it all together. Organizing can be a stressful, emotional process for some people. It often helps to have someone you can work with to make necessary decisions to feel productive and accomplished.
Can I work on my own?
Absolutely! You are encouraged to take charge and move forward on any initiatives we've clearly developed to move you towards improved organization. Additionally, we may decide homework assignments are a good idea to keep you on task and to help you save money.
Will you make me throw my things away?
We decide together how you will sort and decide what stays and what goes. You are in charge of your belongings within a structure we develop together to help you reach your organizational goals.
How long will this all take?
That depends on your organizational goals. We may develop a plan for a discrete project or you may decide you want to organize your entire home and/or office. You decide what your needs and your budget are; we determine how to best make it happen.
