Frequently Asked Questions
What is a home organization coach?
A home organization coach is a professional who helps you create and maintain systems for your living space and daily life. I work with you to declutter, organize, and establish routines that reduce stress and improve efficiency.
What is the difference between an organizer and a coach?
While an organizer primarily focuses on the physical act of tidying a space, a coach works with you to understand the why behind the clutter. We focus on building new habits, routines, and systems that empower you to maintain an organized home long after our sessions are over.
How long does the process take?
The timeline varies depending on the size of the project and your specific goals. Some projects, like organizing a single pantry, can be completed in a few hours, while a whole-home overhaul may take several sessions. To ensure we make real progress, I have a 2-hour minimum per session. We'll typically schedule for 3 hours and can extend the session if we both have the energy to keep going. We'll discuss a timeline that works for you during our initial consultation.
What does the process look like?
My approach is focused on action and immediate results. We'll start with a quick, complimentary consultation to discuss your priorities, your personal style, and what you want to accomplish. Unlike other organizers who might push for expensive containers or a detailed plan before we start, I believe in getting straight to work. Together, we'll dive in, sort through the clutter, and create space so you can see and feel a difference right away. My goal is to make the process as quick and effective as possible, creating a system that works for you using what you already have.
What if I'm not organized at all?
That's exactly why I'm here! My clients come from all backgrounds, and my job is to help you build the skills and systems you need to get and stay organized. We'll work together at a pace that is comfortable for you.
What is the investment for your services?
My pricing is a reflection of the lasting value we'll create together, not just the hours we spend. I offer a clear hourly rate and a discounted rate when you book a multi-session package, which is perfect for more comprehensive projects. I believe in making professional organization accessible, and we'll find a solution that works for you.
Will you make me get rid of my stuff?
I will never force you to get rid of anything. My job is to guide you through the process of making intentional choices about what to keep, donate, or sell. The final decision on every single item is always yours.
Will you make me buy a bunch of expensive containers?
My philosophy is to use what you already have first. My goal is to create a functional system, not to make you spend a fortune on new products. If we do decide something is needed, I'll recommend simple, affordable solutions that fit your budget.
What are your hours?
My favorite times to work are Tuesday through Friday, from 9 AM to 1 PM. I know that life is busy, so just about anything is doable with enough advance notice. Let me know what works for you, and we'll find a time that fits your schedule.
How do I schedule?
The easiest way to schedule is to simply call or text me anytime. We'll have a quick chat about your project and find a time that works for you.
