I help people to unclutter their lives; it usually starts at home and is an in-person, 1:1 service. Most often it begins with one room at a time and evolves onsite. In addition I offer Virtual Organising sessions via your chosen platform in order to reach people out of my area. Simply uncluttering your life is about: becoming personally aware of downsizing your commitments, removing the distractions of modern day consumption and aligning yourself with your highest values. It is about surrounding yourself with simple, beautiful and useful possessions that you love. I believe you can have anything in your life, if you make the space for it. It may be that you are facing a new future? A future forced on you by Change. Perhaps, you are recently divorced, retired or widowed? Are you burdened by a sea of commitments and clutter from the past? Perhaps, you are facing a stressful career change, running a business from home, house relocation or drowning in debt? My work is a partnership with you, I will support you as your transition takes place. I'm a qualified integrative counsellor and CBT therapist which underpins the work I do. I support people experiencing mental health conditions relating to hoarding and chronic disorganisation. I'm experienced in working with people who are neurodiverse including ADHD, OCD and Executive Functioning. I have been a member of APDO since 2013 and offer both Virtual organising and One to One professional decluttering at home. I am a team member of Hoarding Disorders UK and work closely with AGEUk to support elderly people in the community.
