She helped me optimize the layout of our pool renovation which included an expansion of the decking, added fencing, & screened in porch. She's helped with my office layout, master bedroom closet, and kitchen layout. In all of these scenarios, she brings insight that I haven't found anyone else brings. She cares about the functionality of the space as well as the esthetics. I will continue to use her again and again as projects arise. She's the best organizer around and worth every penny (and then some)! Thank you so much for helping me with all my projects!

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!

We expect to have her back every now and again to help with different parts of the house. Highly recommend!!

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.

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.

Working with Emily on organizing my basement was truly a life-changing experience. To begin, she…read morewas very quick to respond to my initial contact with her. She came over to give a free estimate. During this time, she worked through different ways I could use her service and we agreed upon the model that would work best for me. I wanted to be hands-on during this process. It was suggested that we would tackle the project in two different sessions. The first session would be for initial sorting and the second session would be to find everything a home. For our first session, she brought a ton of supplies (boxes, folding tables, bins, labels, sorting cards, etc) for us to work through the items in my basement. We placed items in groups: recycle, trash, keep, relocate, donate. We literally touched everything in the basement. Some of the items in my basement held such sentimental value (recently lost my mother) and Emily had such compassion for me as well as these beloved items that I never felt like I HAD to put an item in a group that I didn't want to. In between our two sessions I had some homework to do (going through some personal bins) that I could do independently. Our second session, she returned to put everything in a home that made sense for me. She brought labels, sharpies and other supplies needed for this task. A place that used to be a dumping ground for everything has turned into a highly functional, multi-purpose space. I had been wanting to do this for quite some time but literally did not even know how to begin. I couldn't have done this without Emily and her expertise. Her initial estimate, price and time wise, was spot on. Her rate is beyond reasonable. I picked up so many strategies working alongside of her. Emily is highly efficient in her work ethic and organizational skills! She has the kindest soul, too!!! She turned an overwhelming experience into something highly enjoyable. Thank you Emily for all you did for us!!! If you have been thinking about getting a room in your house organized, don't wait another minute. Give Emily a call!!!

Most recently I used Lisa and her team to help me pull off an ambitious move to a smaller place that required me to sell, donate, store, or dispose of 75% of my furniture and belongings -- in a very short amount of time. I was completely overwhelmed. The Organizing Mentors did a spectacular of helping me sell what I could, donate or trash what I couldn't, and decide which was which. Lisa also hooked me up with a number of invaluable resources to help with other aspects of my move.

The owner Lisa was very kind and professional and was always there to help me with my decision making. Once I committed to having some assistance, I asked for two helpers with OM to come out. Meagan and Nancy were very fast and respectful of the items being collected/removed. My advice to anyone having to do the same thing, is do your best to gather or remove all of the items you/family want to keep so when OM come over to help it is easier to say, "donate, sell or throw away". Although I have never used a service like this before, they saved me alot of time and frustration. How do you put a price on time? This service is also helpful if you dont have anyone else to help you remove items or if items are too big on your own. Thanks Lisa and your Organizing Mentors team
