THE BENEFITS OF WORKING VIRTUALLY

1. Flexible timings
   Our clients often need to take a day off or sacrifice a Saturday to be able to work with us in person. Most professionals (including us) come to your home for a minimum of three hours, and that can be a roadblock.
   
   Virtual sessions are available during the day and also during the evenings! Lasting between 45 minutes and 2 hours, this allows for greater flexibility in scheduling.
   
   
2. Regular and continuous
   If you find organizing and decluttering an exhausting task, it might be better to do shorter bursts of work more regularly rather than a full long day.
   
   That makes virtual organizing perfect for anyone who is easily fatigued, sleep-deprived, has a short attention span, or needs a slower pace. On top of that, shorter and regular work allows time to adjust to the changes and fosters greater learning and habit re-patterning!
   
   
3. Budget-friendly
   Because virtual sessions already support your own activity and timings, they also encourage more independent work that is assigned in between the sessions, cutting down on the total billable hours.
   
   Thanks to that, combined with shorter bursts of work and a lower hourly rate (50€) than in-person organizing (60€/hr), it allows you to invest in professional help on a more friendly budget.
   
   
4. Not limited by location
   I have worked with people across the globe, from Canada to Singapore. As far as timings and technology allow, there are no limits.
   
   
5. Lowers anxiety and shame
   There can be great shame and embarrassment connected to disorganization… I know many are too anxious to ask for help for the thought of letting someone into their home.
   
   Virtual organizing keeps the control in your hands! You get to show me as much as is comfortable and decide on the level of information shared. This can significantly lower shame and social anxiety, making the brain more focused on the actual work.
   
   
6. Empowerment and learning
   For someone who has been disorganized and out of control for a while, it’s not unusual that their sense of confidence and self-trust is distraught. It is hard to believe that one could get back on track without an organizer by their side.
   
   Virtual organizing gives a greater sense of empowerment because the client is actually doing all the work. That, in return, starts creating new muscle memory and brain circuits, eventually fostering greater self-competence and a return to independence.
   
   

HOW DOES VIRTUAL ORGANIZING WORK?

We start with a free video consultation to discuss and assess your needs, goals, and challenges. We will discuss the potential work, routes to success, timeline, and budget that suit you.

The rate for virtual organizing sessions is 50€/hr.

The work is done via Zoom. In the sessions, we dive deeper into our strategy to reach your goals and discuss any blocks along the way. Then we get to the hands-on work: the actual physical decluttering, organizing, and problem-solving with me on the other side of the screen.

Each session is wrapped with a list of independent work to be done in between sessions. I will equip you with your Project Journal to stay on track and motivated for further work. We continue with our regular sessions for as long as agreed or needed to reach your goals.

I liked the fact that I could get help from a professional without a “stranger” entering my house. Somebody gets a look inside your life and household without the person really be present and that takes away some barriers that might be there.

Sometimes I needed some motivation because I didn’t feel like getting to work on decluttering etc. But Lucie did a great job in motivating me.

I learnt that it isn’t so difficult if you just take one step at a time. I kind of froze in the whole process before my project because there was just too much to do. So, I ended up not doing anything. But I found out if I just spent one hour or two every week decluttering and tidying up, I can achieve so much in the long run.

Now I finally have the feeling I have a grip on my household again. And that feels sooooo good! The house isn’t living me but im living in the house. I finally have the motivation to keep things tidy, neat and clean. It was never a complete mayhem, but I felt like I lost control […] And with your help I finally felt like I was in control again. I’m very proud of my success and I want to thank you for all your help.
