Introduction
I've always had a knack for organizing, and attribute my affinity for order to having Swiss heritage, along with growing up in a home surrounded by lots of “stuff.” My desire to help people live simpler lives began with organizing for a friend's company as a side hustle. I have since struck out on my own, creating The Neat Retreat to bring clients peace of mind by resolving organizational issues big and small.

I knew I needed help organizing my house after moving in and having stuff everywhere, but I didn’t know what to expect, so I am very grateful for Adrienne’s ability to assess the situation and come up with a solid plan. About a year ago I started with 6 sessions and during a few sessions we worked together but most times she did everything herself. She organized 5 closets, one bathroom, the pantry, kitchen desk, and some other little things. The spaces she organized are still organized a year later. Now I have more spaces that need help and I’m so happy to have Adrienne help me again! She comes over, opens all the drawers and closets, comes up with a plan and shops for the shelves and organizing supplies, then she gets to work. She is so incredibly thorough and professional. She checks with me about everything and comes up with all kinds of stuff I never considered but end up making life easier. Even when she saw my disaster messes I never ever felt judged which was nice. Adrienne is incredible at what she does!

Details: Space planning • Removal of unwanted items • Closets • 1,000 - 1,500 sq ft • Very unorganized

I was fortunate to receive Adrienne's services in the form of a gift certificate! While I'd always wanted to hire a professional organizer, I kept thinking I would get to it on my own. I kept procrastinating because I would get overwhelmed with sentimental items as I move through the new empty nest chapter. Adrienne helped me collocate and sort through all of the pockets of my son's childhood keepsakes and toys! We also created storage for items he is moving into his own new home. Adrienne also helped me repurpose an armoire to create a "keeping room" for all of the items that make a home cozy, like candles, throws, and quilts! Having all of these items in one space makes it easy to put items away, as they now have a centralized home, and also prevents me buying duplicate items we don't need. Adrienne not only offered to take away a carload of stuff for me, but she also found ways to repurpose most items, and delivered them to charitable organizations and recycle centers, helping us keep them out of landfills, which is very important to Adrienne and to me! I look forward to working with Adrienne in the future and I highly recommend her services! I would also consider giving The Neat Retreat's services as a gift to a friend or loved one who could use a helping hand in organizing their space!

I am most appreciative of Adrienne, who in just two sessions completely cleaned out and organized the clothes in my closet by season and color, organized my refrigerator, and created a coat closet just by arranging a few boxes! It's as if a breath of fresh air has blown into my home. As an artist I am used to clutter. She created a space in my guest room for a hobby which alleviates the congestion and chaos in my art room. Now I have a separate space for each of my interests where I can more calmly work on my projects. I knew things needed to be moved and sorted, but just couldn't find the gumption to tackle anything on my own. She turned procrastination and dread into a fun afternoon by being kind and funny. During the sorting process of deciding what to keep vs. give away, she allowed me to sit in a comfy chair, thus accomplishing a major task with little effort on my part. She gently encourages a decision. Now I can actually close my closet door in my bedroom, which makes for a more pleasant space to sleep, with extra space left to hopefully not re-clutter. Another great thing about The Neat Retreat is they carry away all the bags of "stuff" in the give-away piles to donate to charity. I will never miss it! Before Adrienne left, she assigned me the bite-sized task of trying on all my pants, getting rid of any that were out of style and no longer fit. She came highly recommended to me from a friend, and now I see why. It was an afternoon very well spent!

Thank you, Sarah! It was a genuine pleasure working with you to make your home more functional. I loved learning about all of your creative endeavors! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you find yourself in need of another good de-cluttering session.

I highly recommend The Neat Retreat for your organizing needs. I like to think I am a very organized person, however like everyone else I have the catch all closet, that over the years has gotten out of control. Adrienne did an amazing job organizing it. One of the best parts of her service is she takes your items to be donated for you. Honestly half of my closet was full of items I wanted to donate, but hadn’t gotten around to taking them, and they just continued to pile up over the years. Adrienne went through and sorted the items and loaded them in her car, while also organizing the items I wanted to keep. My parents are very excited to be able to use the guest room closet when they come to visit next time!!

Liz, thank you so much for the thoughtful review and pictures! I enjoyed our session and am happy that your parents will actually be able to store some of their own things in there when they visit this winter! You knew exactly what needed to be done, just needed a little push, which is so often the case. Give me a shout when you're ready for some help tackling that office project!

I hired The Neat Retreat to help me organize my guest room. It had been a catch-all for a bunch of things I really didn’t know what to do with, like my daughter’s toys. Adrienne came in and efficiently whipped that room into shape. She was able to separate out things I wanted to keep with things to either throw away/donate/sell. She found places to neatly stow away the keepers in other areas of my house, including my attic. Adrienne staged the guest room, including hanging pictures on the wall, so that it was a space I could be proud of when hosting overnight guests. With the time she had left, she organized the hodgepodge of cleaning supplies and tools in my laundry room into containers and systems that make it much easier to find what I need. I would highly recommend hiring The Neat Retreat for your organizational needs!
