For Professional Organizers

How Can I Help You Thrive?

I'm committed not just to creating the best organizing practice I can, but also to collaborating with others in the professional organizing industry to share what I've learned, brainstorm solutions to challenges and tricky situations, and help Professional Organizers at all levels improve their online presence to attract the clients they're interested in serving.

The resources on this page are designed to help you grow and thrive as an organizer. I hope they'll be useful to you as you develop, enhance, or expand your organizing practice.

The Essentials Classes and Books
In collaboration with my colleague Josh Zerkel, I've created The Essentials, a series of learning resources for organizers. Our Becoming a Professional Organizer: The Essentials class is one of the most popular resources for new and prospective organizing professionals in the San Francisco Bay Area. We also offer Paper Management: The Essentials, designed to help organizers develop and strengthen their skills in this area so they can expand their service offerings.

If you're located in or near the Bay Area, join us for our day-long Becoming a Professional Organizer class; contact me if you'd like information on upcoming sessions.
