Introduction
At The Tidy Burgh, we specialize in transforming living spaces by decluttering, organizing, and creating stress-free environments through personalized solutions and practical strategies.
We strive to maximize the use of items already present in your home, crafting practical, distinctive, and efficient systems that are easy to maintain.
As a licensed professional counselor, I understand the psychology of why we keep things, continue the cycle of unorganized chaos, and struggle to figure it out on our own! This won’t be a therapy session, but we can figure out some of the reasons the chaos continues. Then implement strategies to break the chaos cycle.

Chrissy has been a life saver! I contacted her when I was at my wits end, not having a space to even sit down in my own home. I didn’t know what to expect my first session, but Chrissy was patient, and did a deep dive into our home and all the struggles we were facing. She was patient, kind and understanding. We decided to tackle our entryway first. She deeply understood our needs. And in just two hours, she helped us reorganize our entryway so there was a place for all things to go and created a system that we could maintain ourselves everyday. Three weeks later, and that entryway is still organized! Chrissy doesn’t push you to buy expensive and fancy organizers and instead uses what you already have in your home. This was a transformative change for us, and I really appreciate everything she does. We’re excited to continue working with her to bring order to other parts of our home.

Chrissy is magic. My husband has newly diagnosed ADHD and is really attached to his stuff. He is also a designer and so has a very real need to have stuff for projects he’s working on. Plus we have two small kids, and he’s incredibly creative with them, so imagine craft supplies and science experiments for days. We also have collected mid century Knick knacks for our whole relationship (15 years). I consider myself type A and highly organized. I also work way more than 40 hours per week and have no patience for clutter (not a good quality!). So clutter has been a point of tension for us and decluttering is something we have never been able to do together.
Chrissy was perfect for us. She brings her experience as a therapist, an organizer, and a genuinely amazing person. She worked one on one with both of us for a total of 15-20 hours over one week. During that time, she was able to very gently, compassionately, yet effectively help my husband organize an office that has looked like a war zone for 15 years. It took 3 days but they did it. She knew when to gently push him, helped him think of solutions, and came up with a system to prevent reaccumulation. Most importantly, my husband left the experience feeling affirmed, proud of his accomplishments, and capable of keeping things tidy.
Just as impressively, Chrissy was able to flex to help me. I have a polar opposite personality to my husband. I also thought I was good at organizing-maybe I am, but Chrissy is NEXT LEVEL. Chrissy thought of solutions I never imagined, encouraged me to consider alternate uses for stuff that had been idle for too long, and helped me identify more stuff to get rid of than I would have on my own (stuff I just didn’t even “see” anymore. I cannot believe the difference between when I’ve gone on a declutterring binge in the past by myself and how things are post-Chrissy.
We are already planning times for Chrissy to come back to help with my pantry, the basement, and to help with upkeep of what we have. I can’t wait!

I was so thrilled to see everything in my garbage dump room neatly stacked, folded & organized so I can actually deal with it. I recommend this company highly & will definitely call again!

Chrissy’s work in my space made it feel so much like a home. Being organized and decorating your own space can be so difficult and her help took such a weight off of my shoulder. She is so kind, considerate, and creative with the work she does. I couldn’t recommend the tidy burgh more. Thank you!!

This service has absolutely turned my life around as a person recently diagnosed with ADHD who has always had trouble keeping anything clean and decluttered. While livable, my house had become completely overwhelming and dysfunctional after having 2 kids and constantly trying to manage a disorder I didn't even know I had for the longest time! Chrissy is so helpful in getting started when you don't possibly know where to, has great tips and tricks for transforming the space in a way that makes it actually functional to your daily needs, and is so easy and reassuring to work with even in the most hectic of spaces. Our rooms haven't been (and most importantly STAYED) this clean and organized in a long time and it has brought us so much relief. All my thanks and praises to the Tidy Burgh!
