Together we'll establish systems which ring true to your habits and preferences, and which make tidying up easier and more enjoyable in the future. Whether you’re seeking help decluttering, need help balancing an awkward space, or would like someone else to unpack you in your new home, I’m here to help. [if you’re moving, use my code SPACECAKE at Piece of Cake movers for 10% off your move with them! Ah, the beautiful win-win of affiliate discount codes :-)) ] For some projects, everything we need is already in the home. For others, shelving etc must be acquired or built. I’m happy to do both Low Purchase Projects (we can fold reusable bags over to become shirt bins) or Full Fresh Projects (we can select smartly sized and matching bins and labels) or somewhere in between (do what we can, buy what we Must). For projects needing custom builds, heavy installation, lighting install, etc I work closely with a reliable contractor. MINIMUM SESSION: 3hrs if commenced with inquiry message, 5hrs if using AUTOBOOK feature (costs me $68 to be autobooked by you) PROCESSES For Clutter Detangling For sorting out knots in your home we - pick a zone to tackle first - prune, purge, categorize - organize what remains, put things away - shop for or design whats missing (i’ll give you an exact, link-filled shopping list, or else a shopping guide with measurements and suggestions, or else drawings and management for custom shelving fabricated by a close collaborator) - finish putting away when all has arrived For Move Ins To move you in, you can be as involved or detached as you prefer. We can either unpack and plan and shop collaboratively, or, you can give me just a broad overview of what you’re imagining, and then press “play” and get back to your other work while I set up your home. I can also help you on the packing side, to prune/purge/prepare for your move in. In addition to arranging and organizing, I can help you manage projects like lighting hardwiring, fabrication of custom built ins, etc, with the help of reliable, licensed contractor collaborators. HISTORY I've been organizing my friend’s rooms compulsively since the age of 12! This is an everlasting spatial fixation of mine, which in 2022 I've decided to professionalize. I have endless energy for and a deep delight in this kind of work, so I’ve put up a turbine where the wind was already blowing. I have a Masters of Science in Social and Somatic Factors in Design, which is to say I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about and furniture and the social dynamics of space. BUILDING I work closely with a reliable contractor / handyman who is able to do electrical, heavy installation, shelving, custom closet install, etc. I'm also able on my own to install simple shelving, assemble furniture, move large furniture, and hang heavy pictures and mirrors. EMOTIONS I’m here for whatever emotions might arise in your clutterletting, your relinquishing of Stuff. Sometimes the process is easy, and the mere presence of an organizer makes letting go swift. Other times, the process is more involved, stirring up emotions, memories, and complicated feelings about what it means to let go. I'm here to meet your mode and accompany whatever this process is for you. ERGODYNAMICS My Masters of Science focused on ergodynamic design; design which helps rather than hinders circulation (social and physical). To this end I offer consultation and shopping guides for movement-oriented work and living spaces.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with EJ, an incredible personal organizer, as we prepared our small apartment for our new baby. She was not only knowledgeable in maximizing our space but also had a keen eye for picking out the perfect IKEA pieces that fit our style and budget. Her organizational skills turned our cramped quarters into a cozy, efficient home ready for our growing family. Her expertise, patience, and attention to detail made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to transform their living space with professionalism and care.

EJ was kind, thoughtful and resourceful with organizing our storage unit. There were boxes from floor to ceiling and she carefully, but quickly, took each box out and sorted through. The end result was better than what we had envisioned. Thank you, Space Doctors, for all you do!!

Thanks, Rachael! I’m proud of the work we did. So satisfying to debox and newly sort! That storage unit went from a solid tetris tower to a navigable shelved inventory. Huzzah!

Emily has been a life saver for me. She's very organized, and she easily compartmentalizes the situation. I felt no judgement from her, when she saw what dire straits my living conditions were. She understood what my needs were for the use of my space. I will continue to use her service, until we reach the agreed vision. I would highly recommend her.

Working with EJ has been more than I hoped for in an organizer. She takes great care to find out what I need, offering suggestions but adapting to my needs. We still have a way to go, but each time she comes, she makes a visible improvement that leaves me feeling optimistic and energetic. I'm delighted.
