I am an alumna of UCSC, hold a Masters Degree in Social Work and have decades of counseling experience. For more than ten years I have had the pleasure of working as The Home Weeder gaining a diversity of experiences and building a wide range of understanding and skills as a professional organizer.
My passion is creating order and clarity in your home or workplace. I offer organizational expertise without judgment or shame. All jobs are honored as 100% confidential.
What sets me apart from many other professional organizers is not only do I roll my sleeves up and achieve the goals of organizing and decluttering, but when needed I also draw upon my background in counseling to help people move forward effectively and find satisfying solutions to challenges or roadblocks.
Every job I do for people is unique. Sometimes the tasks can be very straight-forward. Other times, for many reasons, people find the process difficult and at times overwhelming. What sets me apart as a professional home and business organizer and declutterer, is my background in counseling. Using strategies from my two professions, I help people move forward effectively and find satisfying solutions to challenges and hurdles.
Clients find my knowledge and guidance gives them the energy and incentive to tackle the tasks at hand. A synergy is created and together using strategy and perseverance, the jobs get done!
It is amazing how some of what we own is easy to organize or pass along. Conversely, there can be great difficulty with other things. Some people experience loss, grief, sadness and other challenging emotions. So many people tell me that their reluctance to “dealing with all their stuff” comes from not wanting to face the emotional component of organizing and decluttering. I have strategies and ideas for any situation to ease the stress and difficulties.
Over the years a common experience for my customers is a sense of relief and excitement - like a weight has been lifted off their shoulders and they can think clearly again.
“Claire was amazing. She's full of energy and cheerfulness. She has a great sense of humor and could keep us going while we sorted through a ton of stuff. Our whole project seemed overwhelming. But her cheer, energy and encouragement were stellar and helped us push through. She’s part cheerleader, motivational coach, and super organizer. She is kind which matters so much. I’m glad we’re done with our project but I do miss her laugh. I can't recommend her highly enough. You won't go wrong with her. She’s worth every penny.”
