When Life is Out of Control…
Your Home Doesn’t Have to Be

    "Knowing oneself comes from attending with compassionate curiosity to what is happening within".

-Dr. Gabor Mate

As a Certified Neurodiversity Coach (CNC) and Organizing Success Coach, Speaker, and Writer, I help people with ADD/ADHD and other neurodiverse traits create supportive home spaces.  I guide my clients to curiously and compassionately draw connections between chronic physical, psychological, emotional, and spatial disorder. Then explore hands-on pathways for sustainable solutions.

Learn practical strategies and develop skills for lasting lifestyle habits that fit your unique needs through hands-on action and practice.

I partner with clients seeking real change, ready to move beyond what goes where and do I keep this or that? Chaotic disorganization and clutter have persisted too long. ADHD, low self-esteem, shame, embarrassment, guilt, confusion, and lack of confidence result in obstacles, avoidance, complete shut-downs. We tap into your inherent strengths to lead through and around the barriers. We initiate progress. Together, our supportive hands-on partnership develops sustainable and transferrable skills to create and maintain surroundings and a lifestyle that spawn comfort and constructive productivity. Spaces you enjoy being in and returning to. A lifestyle supporting you.

Is this what you’ve been searching for? Take the first step, here, now.
