Testimonials
"I can't express enough how invaluable all your help has been to me
during this past year! You helped me to realize that organizing was
only part of the problem--more importantly the reasons behind the
problem were equally important. You were always patient and kind and very
sincere. I came to look forward to seeing you just as I would a good
friend--despite the towering task we might be tackling.
I continue to use all your advice to help me stay organized but I
might need to come up with a new project just so I have an excuse to
have you come back!!
Thanks again and again for all your help! "

"What
a difference Denise made in my life! Family and friends consider me
organized but I knew I was “stuck” with a basement area used for
storage, hobbies and laundry. The area was so loaded with “stuff” that I
couldn’t enjoy time spent on hobbies. I needed help and Denise
delivered. She is creative, practical, knowledgeable and has a style
that makes it very easy to hear, “What do you use that for (a.k.a. do
you really need that)”! I have high standards and was thoroughly
impressed. I am enjoying what feels like a new space… thanks to
Denise. She really did make all the difference."

“I run my own Executive Coaching and Management Consulting firm,
manage my household, and raise two beautiful children currently under
the age of two. Needless-to-say my household and my life are extremely
fast paced. I had spent months beating myself up with frustration
because I couldn’t seem to keep on top of all of the household and
business management activities. Something always seemed to be falling
through the cracks, paper had taken control, and deadlines/appointments
were getting missed. It seemed like a struggle to get anything done. A
friend suggested that I call Denise at Clear Spaces, and that was the
suggestion that changed my life. Denise worked with me to customize
systems of organization that allow me to maintain the life and business
race with balance and grace. She helped me to explore the practices
that were not working for me, and coached me through the implementation
of strategies that ensured my success. Clear Spaces has become my “Go
To” resource for clearing every room in my house and structuring every
management function in my business.”

"Thanks again for all of your help and wisdom in helping me get my space organized! Your methods of "compassionate clearing" helped me get the focus I needed to rationally figure out what things are necessary and useful for my life NOW, and what things are best to pass on to someone else or toss.
My
husband, son, and I have gained so much peace by having our space more
organized, so we can find the things we need and love quickly and efficiently. Best of all, you taught me new thought processes to help me on my organizing path when I'm doing it solo!"

"As a Senior, living with so much accumulated over the years, I felt overwhelmed until I received her services.
I am enjoying my home much better. I can find things and I feel less stressed."
