Are you a professional organizer and are you trained? Yes. I am a member of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO). NAPO is a non-profit professional association founded in 1985 with approximately 3300 members worldwide. I also completed an intensive training course in Salt Lake City, Utah where I mastered the Clear & SIMPLE™ systems of SEE IT, MAP IT, DO IT™ and S.T.A.C.K.S.™ This system provides me a foundation to complete organizing projects effectively and efficiently.
What should I expect after contacting you? The first step will be to schedule a needs assessment. This is our opportunity to meet, assess the problem area(s) and discuss the project. At this time, we will determine your priorities, and map a plan of action with estimated costs. From there the hands-on organizing will begin. Working our way through the S.T.A.C.K.S.™ system of Sort, Toss, Assign a home, Contain, Keep it up, and Simplify we will have your space organized in no time.
How long does an organizing job take? Each client and project is unique. It will depend on the size of the space, the quantity of items, how quickly you can make decisions, and how long we can work together without interruptions or distractions. Some projects may take a few hours where as a whole house will take several days. I can provide homework and to do lists for those areas you feel you can handle on your own.
Do I have to throw things away? You will never be pressured to get rid of items you are not ready to part with. My job is to guide you through the process of determining what is most important to you and creating homes for those things.
Do I have to be present during the project? It is important to me that you participate in the development of your new organized space. Clients that are involved in the decision making are far more likely to maintain the new systems after I leave. Every project is different and there may be steps that I can do alone as well as things you can do on your own between sessions.
Do you have a policy regarding confidentiality? Yes. All information seen, heard or discussed, as well as, all business transactions and personal information acquired, will be held in the strictest confidence. I abide by the written Code of Ethics for members of the National Association of Professional Organizers which can be read at www.napo.net.
What geographical areas do you serve? I serve Johnson County and the surrounding Kansas City area including the cities of Olathe, Overland Park, Lenexa, Shawnee Mission, Blue Springs, Lee’s Summit, Liberty, Parkville and other Kansas City communities. I am also available to clients in the Green Hills area of north Missouri including the communities of Trenton and Chillicothe.

“When I became the manager of this store the office and back room was in shambles. I couldn’t find anything; in fact, I didn’t even know what was there! I had made some progress on my own but then Rebecca came in and “polished the edges” for me. In the back room she helped me find a logical home for everything and set up zones for doing specific activities – shipping and receiving, marketing supplies, kitchen/break room, etc. In my office she used the phrase “visual clutter” and that really hit home with me. The clutter on my desk was cluttering my mind and I was having trouble being productive. The systems she put in place make sense to me; they aren’t crazy concepts. Now I can put my hands on anything I need at any time!” Stacy Overland Park, KS |
