What is a professional organizer?
According to the National Association of Professional Organizers, a Professional Organizer provides information, products, and assistance to help others organize. A professional organizer should guide, encourage, and educate clients about basic principles of organizing by offering support, focus, and direction.
A professional organizer is someone who is trained and experienced in helping you reduce the clutter, “noise,” and complications from your home and/or business life. Disorganization is usually just delayed decisions. An effective professional organizer helps you make those sometimes difficult decisions with an eye to helping you adopt that positive behavior.
