I help you think outside of the box to get something into the box.
Why do you have so much trouble doing this yourself?
There can be many reasons. I wish everyone thinking about getting help from an Organizer knew that it's nothing to be ashamed about or embarrassed by.
There's more to uncluttering than clutter.
Everyone has strengths and weaknesses.
When you need help organizing, most often you just need help discovering what systems will work for you. I can guide you to that discovery and through to a completed project.
- Many of my clients lack skills to structure their surroundings. They weren't always taught how to organize, or they were taught ways which don't actually work for them.
- Maybe they have the ability and knowledge but they can't find a starting point or prefer company while they create their systems, or can't find the tools they need.
- A person's lack of time management skills can contribute to their disorganization: we'll look at time-keeping techniques.
- Sentimentality and fear can get in the way of decisions. We can talk about that.
- A person's anxiety about the process can contribute to their disorganization - let's see what might help.
- Grief can be disruptive. Illness can damage processes. Personal circumstances such as a divorce, a sudden move, a change of jobs, can upend systems.
I will be starting a virtual Buried in Treasures support group in January 2024.
Please email me at lauren@casualuncluttering.com or call me at 425-947-3976 for details.
• Does your stuff overwhelm you?
• Is it kinda easy to bring it into your spaces, and kinda hard to let it go?
• Do you want to think differently about your things?
Buried in Treasures support groups are weekly, 16-week-long evidence-based workshops developed by Lee Shuer, a person with lived experience of hoarding disorder, Dr. Randy O. Frost, a pioneer in researching and treating hoarding disorder, with editing contributions by Becca Radofsky, Shuer’s wife and business partner, designed to help people attempt to reduce their acquiring and saving habits and examine their beliefs about their possessions. It is their hope, and my hope, that the work helps people function more effectively, comfortably and safely in their environments.
