A Clutter class - for people that are ready to live a life less cluttered

Upcoming 8-Week Class: Getting Unburied and Moving Forward

We are preparing to open registration for our next 8-week virtual program, “Getting Unburied and Moving Forward,” beginning Tuesday, March 10, 2026, from 6:00–7:30 PM Mountain Time (USA).

If you have questions about the class, I am happy to provide more information. 

In addition to group programs, I also work with clients individually—both in person and virtually—throughout the world. This may also be a helpful option depending on your needs.

Why This Work Matters

Getting your home and life back on track can be transformative. Clutter is rarely just about “the stuff”—it often reflects deeper challenges. This program helps you understand what’s underneath the clutter and how to begin moving toward the life you want.

About Chronic Disorganization & Hoarding

Chronic disorganization and hoarding are complex issues. Hoarding is not simply about possessions, but about what those possessions represent.

I have been facilitating the 16-week Buried in Treasures program for over nine years. To support individuals seeking a shorter commitment, I developed the 8-week Getting Unburied and Moving Forward virtual program, which includes the most essential elements of the 16-week class along with additional content on time and paper management.

As a Professional Organizer and Advanced Hoarding Specialist with more than 18 years of experience, I have worked closely with clients both onsite and virtually. I also founded the first Hoarding Task Force in Montana, collaborating with social services and mental health agencies to expand education and reduce stigma.

The real challenge is not the “stuff”—it’s what lies beneath it. This class explores those root causes while providing practical tools, exercises, and supportive discussions.

Start the New Year Organized: Why Virtual Organizing Might Be the Solution You Need

If you’re looking for a flexible, affordable, and effective way to get organized this year, Virtual Organizing may be the perfect fit. Many people enter the new year motivated to declutter their homes, streamline their routines, and reduce stress—but busy schedules often get in the way. That’s where virtual organizing services come in.

Virtual organizing allows you to work with a professional organizer from anywhere, on your schedule, and without the time commitment of a traditional four-hour in-person session. It’s a convenient, results-driven way to start the year clutter-free and organized.

---

What Is Virtual Organizing?

Virtual organizing is a remote home organization service conducted by phone or Zoom. Clients can email photos of their space or walk through it live with their organizer. You receive professional guidance, a customized plan, and ongoing accountability—while completing the hands-on tasks at your own pace.

This service is ideal for anyone ready to make changes but who prefers flexibility and shorter sessions.

Benefits of Virtual Organizing

1. Affordable Home Organization

Virtual sessions eliminate travel time and reduce session length to one hour, making them a cost-effective alternative to in-person organizing services.

2. Flexible Scheduling

Instead of blocking off half a day, you can schedule a one-hour session at a time that works for you. Evenings, mornings—whatever fits your lifestyle.

3. Works Anywhere

Whether you live down the street or across the world, virtual organizing gives you access to a professional organizer without geographical limitations.

4. Expert Guidance and Accountability

Your organizer helps you set goals, create systems, make decisions, and stay focused. Accountability is a key factor in successful decluttering and long-term organization.

5. Less Stress, More Clarity

An organized home reduces stress and can even save money by helping you avoid unnecessary purchases and find what you already own.

---

What Can You Organize Virtually?

Virtual organizing works for almost any project, including:

• Home decluttering

• Closet and pantry organization

• Office and workspace organization

• Paper management systems

• Time management

• Life organization and planning

• Goal setting and productivity

Whether you’re tackling one room or fine-tuning your daily routines, virtual organizing provides the structure and support to make real progress.

---

How a Virtual Organizing Session Works

During your virtual session, your organizer will:

1. Review your space using photos or live video

2. Identify your goals and challenges

3. Outline a clear, step-by-step plan

4. Help you make decisions

5. Provide guidance, tips, and accountability

6. Set a timeline for completing tasks

Between sessions, you can email quick questions or updates, and each follow-up session includes reviewing progress and adjusting the plan as needed.

---

Where to Start

Choose one space: a closet, pantry, entryway, or your desk—any area you want to improve.
Small wins create momentum, and virtual organizing helps you build sustainable systems that truly work for your life.

---

Is Virtual Organizing Right for You?

Virtual organizing is ideal for people who:

• Are motivated to make changes

• Want professional guidance without the added cost of in-person services

• Prefer shorter, focused sessions

• Need flexibility in scheduling

• Want accountability to stay on track

If that sounds like you, virtual organizing can help you create a home that feels calm, functional, and supportive.
