No. Please do not clean for me. Seeing your home as it really is helps me understand what is going on and how to help. There is no extra credit for tidying before I arrive. This is a judgment free zone.

Most sessions follow a simple flow. We start by walking the space together and getting clear on your goals. Then we take things out and group them so you can see what is there. Next we make decisions about what stays, what goes, and what needs a better home. Finally, we put everything back in a way that works with your daily life.

There are breaks, water, snacks, and plenty of time to pause and check in. You are never just standing there while chaos happens around you.

No. You are always in charge of what stays and what goes. I will offer perspective, ask questions, and suggest where we might start, but nothing leaves your home without your yes. The goal is not to strip your life down. The goal is to keep what supports you and release what is weighing you down.

Not unless you want to. We always start with what you already have in your home. Often we can rearrange, repurpose, and adjust what is there and that alone makes a big difference. If new containers, hangers, or baskets would truly help, I can make recommendations that fit your space, style, and budget. There is no expectation that you invest in a full set of matching products.

Not always. For most projects it is helpful to have you there at the beginning so we can walk the space, talk through goals, and make some early decisions. After that it depends on your personality, schedule, and comfort level.

Some clients like to be present for every step and find it motivating. Others prefer to be there for key decisions and let me handle more of the sorting and setup. We will talk about what feels best for you and plan the sessions around that.

I work in person with clients in Portland, nearby neighborhoods, and the Midcoast region of Maine. If you are not sure whether you are in range, you can always ask.

I also offer virtual consultations if you are farther away or would rather work at your own pace with guidance and a clear plan on goes here.

For a virtual consult, we meet on video and you walk me through your space. We talk about what feels hard, what is working, and what your goals are. After the call, I create a step by step plan that you can work through on your own.

We can schedule follow up calls if you would like accountability, help troubleshooting, or a second set of eyes on your progress.

Timing and cost depend on the size of the space, how much is in it, and how quickly you like to make decisions. During our first conversation I will give you a clear estimate based on what you share.

We can always start with one area so you can get a feel for the process and the pace before you commit to more.

Almost everyone feels this way at first. You are not alone in that. Your home is not a reflection of your worth. It is simply where life has been happening. My job is not to judge you or your space. My job is to help you feel more supported in it so you can move through your day with a little more ease.

That is very normal. You do not have to be completely ready to start. If you are feeling curious or pulled to make a change, we can begin with a simple conversation. Sometimes talking it through is the first step toward feeling ready.
