Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started?

We’ll start with a brief complimentary consultation, either virtual or in-home, and take it from there! This gives us time to get to know each other and discuss your organizing needs.

What happens in the first session?

Based on our consultation conversation, we’ll start the first session with a blueprint for addressing your project. Together we’ll assess the space (how is it currently used, what are your desired goals, etc.) and create a plan forward…and then we’ll jump right in to achieving the organized space you deserve.

How long is a session?

Sessions range from 3 – 6 hours, but will vary depending on the project and your schedule. A minimum session is 3 hours.

How does pricing work?

Pricing ranges from hourly to packages, depending on the project. Estimates are provided in advance so you know what to expect. I’ve worked with clients on fixed incomes and with unlimited budgets, and everything in between. This is an investment in YOU and I want it to be accessible.

How much work do I need to do?

Your level of involvement in the project is up to you. We can work together each step of the way, or use a hybrid approach where we work together as needed.

Can you just do it for me?

Absolutely! After a brief discussion about your goals and style, I’ll take it from there — checking in with you as we go.

Is there a cancellation fee?

Life is unpredictable, so I try to be flexible with cancellation and rescheduling policies. Sessions canceled with less than 24 hours notice will be charged a $100 cancellation fee. For rescheduling, please give me as much notice as possible. Appointments rescheduled a second time will be charged a $100 fee which can be applied to the next session.

Will I need to buy a lot of new stuff?

Field trips to the Container Store and HomeGoods are fun, but first we’ll figure out exactly what you need. We’ll also discuss your budget, style, and desired outcomes before we purchase anything.

What if I’m embarrassed to show you my space?

I understand. Inviting someone into your home can be intimidating. My mission is to help my clients thrive in their environments, and that means I am your partner in this. This is a judgement-free, confidential service. I’ll never ask you to part with a possession or make a change before you are ready. And in my experience, clients’ spaces are never “the worst” — it just feels that way to you right now. Let’s tackle it together.

I feel like I should be able to do this myself…but I’m stuck. Why should I hire a professional organizer?

In the same way a yoga instructor helps you learn the poses, or a financial advisor helps you plan for retirement, a professional organizer is a coach, partner and friend who helps you achieve the home you want. Life is busy; your home should be a place where you can take refuge from all that. My mission is to help you live and thrive in your environment, whatever that looks like for you!
