So Glad I Found C.Lee of Simplify You!…read more C.Lee is a real gem. Working with her during my home renovation was incredible - she had such a great way of envisioning our space and suggesting things that I never would have thought of on my own. Every idea she suggested was spot on, practical and very clever, and perfectly fit how we actually live. She came up with the idea of turning an inaccessible corner of our kitchen into a cozy pet food nook in the mudroom, which was a great use of what would otherwise be wasted space. She also suggested converting our old coat closet into a pantry when we expanded the kitchen, and it's been a game-changer. She encouraged me to rethink the original plans for stove and microwave placements, which was 100% the right call. All those considerations and smart suggestions have made such a huge difference in how our home feels and functions. Now that everything's done, I can honestly say this renovation exceeded all of my expectations. The kitchen, especially. It's beautiful, it flows perfectly, and it just works. C.Lee really listened, and her ideas helped make the whole house feel more intentional and comfortable. I promise, if you are doing a major renovation, using her "plan review" services will pay off tenfold. Highly recommend!

As of this writing Simplify You has a perfect 25 5 star reviews, and I am excited to provide the…read more26th. My family spent 2 years living abroad and to prepare for that trip we dumped our entire 3 story townhouse into a 10 sq foot storage unit. Since getting back, we've spent the past 5 months taking out boxes, processing them, and sorting them into our new smaller apartment. The frustration of this experience was ever present - as soon as we got the apartment in a good place we'd go get 10 more boxes and restart the whole cycle, leaving us feeling underwater and overwhelmed. We also have a 5 year old and a 6 month old, so the time we were able to invest in the house was always limited and at the end of an exhausting day. Before hiring C.Lee I would have guessed we had another 2-3 months of clutter hell before we would be in the clear. Then we hired Simplify You, and everything changed immediately. When we hired C.Lee we assumed there would be 2-3 day-long sessions to get the last mountain of boxes down and our home finally FINALLY orgainzed. Instead, C. Lee came with one assistant Amy, and in just 8 hours of hard work between them, me, and my wife, we managed to process and store the final 25 or so boxes from our previously bottomless storage unit, AND sort all the things we still had lying around, AND completely reorganize our kitchen, master walk in closet, bedroom, and kids bedroom. There were a few niggly things left over from that monster session, which C. Lee easily solved in a quick 3 hour follow up. So instead of spending 3 more months in box clutter hell, we instead spent 11 whirlwind hours with C.Lee and got the job done - meaning 1 hour of C.Lee + assistant time equaled about one WEEK of effort from just me and my wife alone. In addition to all the above I could write a volume on C.Lee and Amy's professionalism, upbeat attitude, ability to keep us going when processing difficult childhood memories, and raw organizational talents, but if I keep going on for much longer people will start to think this review is a plant or something. If you are at all struggling under the weight of clutter or disorder at home, then you should hire Simplify You. For a fair price you will reap extraordinary value and shed a mountain of stress, anxiety, and frustration. I cannot recommend C.Lee and her staff highly enough, and will be recommending her services to anyone who sounds like they feel even remotely like we did before her whirlwind day changed our lives.

Our careers took us on 6 moves in 7 years with several periods living in separate homes and…read morecross-country commutes. Our stuff was scattered in storage across three states when we finally moved to our current home. Once we could get everything rejoined in one place, each room was stacked with boxes and we were overwhelmed. We knew we needed help paring down and getting it all organized. We turned to Mindful Organizing and have had an incredible experience. We have worked with Sue to tackle several areas over the past several months. Each time, she makes a project that feels overwhelming seem possible from the get-go. She doesn't push rigid methodologies, but rather helps create sanity and order while adapting to an approach that works for us. And wow, is she efficient! We get more done in a four-hour session with her than we could accomplish in a day or two if we tried to tackle it on our own. She's helpful, motivating, and practical, which we love. Most notably, she is non-judgmental. Her approach has always been shame-free and blame-free, which makes the whole process so much more comfortable and productive. We have loved working with her.

I couldn't bring one more thing into my small house without getting rid of something. I brought Pam in and didn't know where to start. She helped me get started and worked with me for several visits. While I wasn't able to complete my work with her, she put me on the right path to organization and soon I was a regular at the Container Store. Pam and her helpers got me going and the effects have lasted for four years now. In fact, my basement has remained almost spotless since there was a place for everything I had left. I will admit I still have two boxes of papers left upstairs, but that's it and one day I will sit down and scan them. Why am I keeping paper anymore???? I would recommend Pam to anyone who needs a push in the right direction. The fact that her changes were lasting is the best recommendation I can give. Money well spent, for sure.

When my first organizer had to retire abruptly pre-covid I tried several others but none were…read morewilling to do what I needed: organize the mess themselves so we could get to work together on the actual organizing. Plus most say "I don't judge" or "I've seen worse", because Rebecca just got to work I realize I've never quite believed it. The photo is the result of only four hours of work, two of which I simply hid. Some is trash, obviously, although I do have an excuse for the hamper. The rest is donations, things I don't use or wear which other people actually need. I'm not attaching inside photos: I can finally get to the entire floor but haven't vacuumed it yet. It's like this: once things started to go bad it had just kept getting worse. My walk-in closet and bedroom had gotten so cluttered I didn't have a place to put clean laundry, had sheets in various places, rope baskets piled on top of boxes - all with a jumble of crafts and clothing and books and whatever. I couldn't even find space to pull it all out to sort it. Rebecca arrived, I hid in my study. 2 hours later she had things to the point that I could come in and start making decisions. And she'd found four cat brushes - I kept buying new ones and duplicates because I couldn't find what I had. My homework is getting all the laundry done and put away. She's gathered other groups of small things I can easily sort through to keep only what I need. And collecting all the paper including stuff to be filed so old I don't need it and old files. Only some of it needs to be shredded and I don't think she knows what she's getting into but know that she can handle it. Then we tackle the next stage. my living/dining room. We all had good intentions: during the lockdown we pulled things out of places to organize them then were too overwhelmed to actually do it.
