Frequently Asked Questions
and Other Concerns

If you have a question or concern that is not addressed below, please contact me.

How much do you charge?
The initial review is free.  This includes a 1 hour onsite visit where you show me around your space and we discuss my fee structure.
  If you would like to discuss this further, please call me.

Where are you located?
Just outside the Historic Village of Saranac Lake, NY. Nestled in the beautiful Adirondack Mountains, we are central to the Tri-Lakes region of Upstate New York.

What areas do you serve?
Servicing the Adirondacks and beyond.  Distance is not an issue as we can arrange sessions via digital photos, email and telephone.  If you prefer on-site assistance, we can arrange that as well.  Travel expenses will apply.  Please contact me to discuss what would work best for you.

What are your credentials?
I have 20+ years of office supervision experience requiring organizing skills.  I have helped friends and family organize throughout my life.  This comes naturally to me and I enjoy watching people find satisfaction in being organized.  I’ve decided to turn this passion into my career path.  My knowledge in this field is enhanced daily through multiple avenues of continuing education.  I am working toward my goal of becoming a Certified Professional Organizer.  I am a current member of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) and practice the principles noted in their code of ethics.

How do I know  you can help me?
As a Professional Organizer I can approach your situation from an objective angle.  By listening to the client describe the areas that overwhelm or frustrate them, I can help find solutions that will work for that individual.  Our initial review is a 1 hour onsite visit at no cost to you. This time also allows us to determine whether we are a ‘fit’ for each other.  As long as you are open to finding new ways that will work for you, I know I can help you. Remember, if you do the same thing everyday, nothing will change.

I am embarrassed to allow anyone into my home (or office).
Please don’t be.  If you don’t allow me to come in and assess the situation, then I cannot help you.
  I offer a non-judgemental service and understand your personal fears.  There is always a solution to becoming organized.  In this fast paced world we live in, many people become disorganized before they even realize it.   I can help you get organized and feel confident in your surroundings again.  I will also share some tools with you to keep you on the right track. 

Will you tell people that I am disorganized?
No.  First of all, I believe everyone can learn to be organized.  This does not mean you have to be a perfectionist.  It simply means you have to take control of the “stuff” in your life.  Second, as mentioned above, I am a current member of NAPO and practice the principles noted in their code of ethics.
