- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
1. A brief phone talk gives us a glimpse as to how well we will understand each other and work together. If another organizer is better suited to the work requested, I like to relay that up front. 2. I send an email to confirm all details about your appointment so that we are on the same page. 3. I show up with a great attitude, ready to tackle your project!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My BS/MA are education/curricular related, which provide a foundation for me to better grasp your goals and the challenges involved in meeting them. Years of counseling training (*not* licensed) and experiences mean that my approach includes great depths of compassion, consideration and even negotiating skills. I served on the OC Task Force on Hoarding -- the first of its kind nationwide -- before hoarding was " a thing" and I love working with, not just the stuff, but getting to know people behind the stuff. My every client is valuable and talented and offers unique giftings to the world. My task is to free up the tangible hurdles that interrupt their giftedness.
