Knight Decluttering and Organizing

I realized I haven't posted on this page a whole lot. Over the past year I've mostly only been working with existing clients who are fully vaccinated where we are comfortable with our mutual Covid safety protocols. I'm slowly starting to open up to work with new clients again. I'm still trying to be very careful both to protect my clients, and to protect myself as I have autoimmune issues. If you're interested in scheduling something with me, please do feel free to message me and we can see if our schedules work out.

I'm grateful I was able to recently help a couple of clients who needed immediate assistance. One needed help sorting through a lot of emotionally intense paperwork in order to deal with a legal issue, and the other needed to clear out an entire apartment. I'm always glad when I can help make a complicated situation feasible when someone has hit total overload, and I know that so many folks right now are unfortunately in that position.

This is usually the part where people hire me LOL! Seriously though, the world is pretty complicated right now, and a lot of people are dealing with elevated anxiety. The below meme offers a solid overview of challenges with executive function (ie, the ability to decide to do a thing and then go do it). When we're stressed out or our anxiety is triggered, this can mess with our ability to complete a task. So, if you've found yourselves to be more easily distracted, if you have a hard time focusing, if you have brain fog...it's pretty normal to be experiencing all of that when you're stressed. So, take a breath, and cut yourself some slack. :)

Basically, this is why people hire me. LOL

I have plenty of openings in my schedule for the next weeks, so feel free to message me if you'd like to get started with an in person project or with some distance support via phone or video.

This is an excellent overview of the kind of work I do with my clients. I try to look at the patterns of where stuff gets piled and backtrack what's going on. Usually it's a combo of things, and "too much stuff" is only one of those. The issue is often not enough of the right storage space, as well as too many tasks in the way.

While not all my clients have ADHD, almost all of my clients struggle with issues of executive dysfunction, which is what this Twitter thread alludes to. When there are too many mini tasks in the way of taking off a coat and shoes, or anything like that, the task is likely to be left undone and stuff is in a pile, or things get lost because they don't have a consistent place.

If you need help processing through things like this but aren't able to hire me for on-site work, I can probably work with you via phone or video chat. I can help you get some systems in place that work for you.
