I would consider myself a pretty organized person, but I was completely stumped on how to go about organizing our garage. Teresa met me for a free consultation and I was blown away with her thoroughness and thoughtfulness. Teresa's professional perspective helped us organize a part of our home that we had tried many times in the past to tackle unsuccessfully. Now I am looking at my whole house thinking, "What would Teresa do with this cabinet/room?" I will be calling her again.

Thanks so much for rescuing me and helping me get myself and Mom's house organized! Since I didn't have any clue how or where to get started, I really appreciate your calm, no pressure attitude and conversation about what I would like to do. You were able to point me to the room I was the most concerned about, keep me focused on that room, and help me get one area at a time taken care of so that it wasn't such an overwhelming task. Even as I wandered off to put something away you knew I would get lost in multi-tasking and you easily got me back to my initial focus point. My family was amazed at how much we accomplished in such a short time, too! Now when I get ready to tackle a project I think about where I want to start, what I want to accomplish, and I concentrate on finishing that area first!

I know I couldn't have done anywhere nearly as much alone, as we did while you were here. Thank you again so much for the organizational knowledge you passed on to me!

Teresa organized my bathroom and walk-in closet and after that we organized the kitchen. Both days Teresa knew exactly where to start and what to do so no time was wasted. By discarding and re-arranging using logic about where things belong, the organizing moved swiftly, there is now no problem finding things that were moved, and once crowded spaces now have empty racks, drawers and shelves. The process was amazing, the "value" was incredible and the entire process gets an A++ from start to finish.

Teresa's service was a birthday present from my mom. I wish I had her help me organize my closets and kitchen a long time ago. I suffer from ADHD and she developed an orderly plan for me to keep my life manageable and organized. She is creative, non- judgmental, on time and very friendly. I highly recommend her to family and friends!

I highly recommend Teresa on any detail project that you may have. Teresa goes beyond the call of duty. She focuses on her client's desire and her dedication is amazing. Teresa kept me focused to assist her with direction of my major garage project. Her previous experience in management shows her time management expertise. One can tell that it takes a special talent with a great deal of passion to be a professional organizer and detail specialist. Thank you again Teresa. I will continue to refer and use your service. You are a true blessing.

When we moved into our new home, we realized the need of assistance to get everything organized in its' functionally and esthetically pleasing place. Teresa surveyed the required task and immediately set about making furniture placements, the hanging of wall pictures, organizing the kitchen, and all other tasks required to set the house.

We are very pleased with her judgment and artistic arrangements. Her work ethics and attitude was most pleasing. When and if the occasion presents requirement of another home staging, we definitely will seek her assistance. We definitely recommend Teresa for any task requiring organizing. She has a very special talent for organizing and efficiency.

Teresa accomplished an amazing downsizing and organizing job for my mother and me. I was on a very tight deadline and the task was overwhelming. However, Teresa managed the time well, was a good listener, and had a positive attitude, which got the job completed promptly. She was honest and very respectful of our belongings. It was impressive how she followed through with all that she promised. Her expertise proved to be very valuable and I would highly recommend her services.

Teresa did a wonderful job organizing my pantry and refrigerator!!! It all makes sense now!!! Both areas are efficiently planned and easy to maintain. She was very courteous and professional. She listened to my issues and solved my organizational problems in a timely manner. I was very impressed with her ideas. I would definitely recommend her service.

The new room we added that you helped me "stage" looks great! It is everyone's favorite room, and has a sense of being loved, yet it is neat and welcoming. I really like how you managed to balance the hint of green all the way around the room, too. Again, now I know what to look for when I stage my next room.

Thank YOU!!! for the wonderful day of transforming my home into yet another level of wonderful! I think anyone would be thrilled to get to go through the process I've been able to go through with you. You were wonderful to work with and so empathetic and encouraging. 

After you left I just sat down in my chair and was exhausted so I just sat in gratitude and absorbed the energy from the day. I got up a couple of times and opened cupboards and my closet and then sat down again for a while. I just kept ooing and awing at everything. I've been feeling great energy all day today and it was so exciting to come home tonight to my clean and neat kitchen!

You were like a messenger/angel that swooped in and gave so much of yourself. I sure hope you know how much I appreciate all you did.

After seeing the amazing job Teresa did on my neighbor's craft room /office, I decided to take the plunge. I was always very skeptical of hiring anyone to help me because I didn't want to spend money deciding where things should go. I should be able to do that myself, right? Well, the fact that my scrapbook room was in such disarray for so many years, really was a wakeup call that my own problem solving skills really weren't solving any organizational issues, were they? So, I called on Teresa with my neighbor's extreme positive satisfaction and I have to say, I now want Teresa to organize my whole life! I now never want to leave my "space." (scrapbook room)

Teresa has an amazing ability to really listen carefully to what you are saying, and she is able to lead you down the path of organizational thinking in your own way, not hers. Your space is your space and Teresa not only respects that, she has the uncanny ability of being so non-judgmental that not once did I feel embarrassed or silly about any of the reasons I had been holding onto so much "stuff". All final decisions were mine to either keep or get rid of something, and all final decisions were mine on where stuff should go...not one tiny fragment of anything was thrown away from by Teresa, it was happily my decision.

Teresa is a delight to work with. Her attitude is positive, encouraging, and honest and she comes prepared to work hard. I had so many tiny details in my scrapbook room, she was able to keep them all straight in her head. I really enjoyed working with Teresa, she is upbeat, objective and most of all patient and empathetic. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone for any reason. Teresa is an asset and a true gem; she has taught me ways to stay organized in many other aspects of my life, not just in my scrapbook room and for that, I am forever grateful.

Professional Organizer!!  Wish I had done it sooner! Teresa organized "my" office and office closet which is used by me and my 4 kids. The absolute best thing about Teresa for me was her ability to find a way to organize that worked for me. This is not easy when I say things like "I don't/won't use any space if I have to bend over" or "I won't take the time to open and close boxes to organize", she just smiled and said OK. I couldn't believe she didn't try and change my mind! As a result I have a beautifully organized office. The biggest shocker to me and especially my husband has been that I have kept it up! In the past my office was in a constant state of disarray but that is not the case since getting it organized!

I was so happy with the results that I have had Teresa back twice, once to organize my personal closet (with excellent results) and a second time to organize my girls' bedroom. The girls loved the process ! One daughter spend the entire next week in a "new" outfit and came down every morning saying, "I forgot I had this!" So far they have kept their room nicely organized. Teresa took the time to talk with and teach the girls (9 and 7) how to stay organized. I now say to the girls, "Will you girls take 5 minutes to organize, you don't have to clean anything just organize a bit". I cannot believe the difference!

Let me just say, my husband thought, "What a waste, I could organize you - the problem is you don't put things away" and he is right, as he has organized me in the past and it looks great but in a day it was right back where we started.
Teresa's forte was finding a way to organize that was EASY and NATURAL for me to keep up with. I really cannot believe the difference! Worth every penny! Thank you Teresa!
