Phone coaching "Can" work!

"Lindsay has given me incalculable advice. Her office organizing and professional business advice is already beginning to show returns 100 times that which I invested in my time with her, within the past few months. She has opened up my mind and hidden resources in my business. Her recommendations to some of her business connections or associates has brought me help to run a more efficient and organized firm."

Clearing Clutter and Getting Organized

When I walked in at 3:00 Lindsay and Doug were busy shredding, filing, clearing, and organizing. There was already a dramatic change in Doug’s office and I could see that he was really getting into this. I hung out in the background and just observed for awhile. What I noticed was that Lindsay had a wonderful quality of being a great listener and asking really good questions, as well as making it fun, which always relaxes everyone! When Doug answered her, there was no judgment on Lindsay’s part. She would acknowledge his response and give him a few suggestions on how to resolve the issue. She was very open to “creating systems” that would work for Doug and not just giving him “systems”.

Phone coaching "Can" work!

I wasn’t 100% convinced that phone coaching would work, but quickly realized it does. I can relax (or move around) in the privacy of my own home which enables me to really focus in on the conversation; because of this the sessions are very intimate and deep. Lindsay’s honest, non judgemental approach puts me totally at ease; I feel safe, supported and understood. One of my biggest breakthroughs so far has been to notice my negative self talk and come up with strategies to switch it around, and recognize and use my strengths. I now understand that I have many of the answers to my issues already; with better self awareness I can change old negative patterns and feel a whole lot less stressed. Coaching with Lindsay is like talking to a trusted old friend….I highly recommend her.

Organizing Actually Became A Fun Activity

My dog, Puck, and I were giddy with delight whenever Lindsay came to work with us. Lindsay whisked through the house organizing everything in sight. She made decisions quickly, but continuously consulted with me as she completed each task. Because of her never-ending positive, non-judgmental attitude, organizing actually became a fun activity. I am very grateful to Lindsay for the many organizational tips she gave me, and for all the time spent in her cheerful company.

Let the Light Shine In

Lindsay it was so wonderful to sit at my dining room table and look outside. Long time since my curtains had been open! And so comforting to look over in the den and be able to see the top of my coffee table ;-)! I am excited about what lies ahead in getting my house together. Thank you so much!

ADD Challenged

Lindsay and I worked together first to de-clutter then to implement some systems to keep my busy life running more smoothly. She suggested many stratergies that I'm now using that help me to keep things more simple and structured…just the way they need to be for my way of processing things…many thanks.

It was terrific working with Lindsay last year. My new organizational systems have been holding up well. And I've applied many of the things she taught me in my home, to my office organization and other things, too. Great organizer….

I'm Thrilled With The Results!

I took advantage of two sessions with Lindsay and I'm thrilled with the results. She applies clear principles of organizing and adapts them to the needs of my work (journalism) and lifestyle. What sounds like a luxury is really money well-spent clearing away clutter, unfinished tasks, and ultimately saving time that would otherwise be spent trying to find things. It's tempting to use her more regularly, but it's not really necessary: the beauty of her work is that she gives you the skills and tools to be more organized, and stay that way.

The Most Important Call I Ever Made

Phoning Lindsay was the most important call I ever made. Like a puzzle she put my life into working order for all time. Her Systems work! Her strategies, no fault! All because this woman listens carefully and really knows what she's doing. Not only that….she personalizes the whole process with compassion, this is experience, plus raw talent.

Getting Organized Can Be Fun

When I finally decided to hire an organizer to sort through two large storage units full of stuff, I was rather apprehensive. At first I thought I would have to donate, sell or throw away a lot of the things I truly loved. With Lindsay you decide what you want to keep and she finds a place for it. Lindsay was great to work with and made what might have been a tedious job both interesting and fun. Lindsay has a lot of energy and stamina and when she says she's seen it all, believe her.

I Saved $53,000

I have a beautiful home but it was so cluttered I wasn't enjoying being in it. My stress level was way up there as a result. Also I had an expensive storage unit full of stuff. We started by emptying the storage unit, saving me $300 a month. Lindsay arranged to have all the trash and Goodwill items taken away. Now, we're gradually de-cluttering the whole house. I'm already ecstatic with the space that's become available. My bedroom and closets are now tidy and usable. They only contain the clothes I wear. My living room is clear of clutter, as is my kitchen. Looking around gives me a stress-free, relaxed feeling at day's end.

One amazing bonus was when Lindsay found stock certificates, long forgotten, worth $53,000. They were in a box of books I'd inherited years ago and never sorted through. They were destined for Goodwill when Lindsay found them. Lindsay is very quick, but also very thorough, when sorting. Her careful working style saved the stock from being lost.

I'll be sharing that story over dinners for a long, long time!!

Our Office Move Was A Breeze

Our business has expanded rapidly and our paperwork had become chaotic and inefficient. When we contacted Professional Organizing we needed help to get organized and take our home office and relocate into commercial premises. First they organized several years of business documents and set up new filing systems to help us stay organized. They packed everything and arranged for the movers to come in and physically move us. They oversaw the actual move and unpacked at lightning speed while we carried on running the business. Everything was set up from the filing systems, action files to furniture, lighting and equipment. The consultant we used had great skills, artistic flair and a wonderful personality. Our business is now booming. I highly recommend Professional Organizing to any business that needs better organization to run efficiently.

Moving Dad Was So Much Easier

Professional Organizing is great. The consultant was cheerful, patient, thoughtful and creative. She assisted my father to move into an assisted living community and made a stressful situation a lot less so.

I Can Now Focus On My Work

I am thrilled with the organizing sessions I have had so far. Professional Organizing came into my home and after discussing the situation assessed my needs very quickly and accurately. We began by organizing my home office, as it was the area that I found most distressing. Now we are working on the rest of the house. It is an ongoing process that is helping me enormously to focus my energies on writing and relieved me of a lot of stress and clutter. I would be happy to talk to anyone about their great service.

Feng Shui

Lindsay has a way of evaluating what to keep and what to throw that is relaxed and easy. I have more useable square footage in my house thanks to her. At the price of Bay Area real estate, that's a big saving.

Clutter Clearing

I like the way you work, very concentrated and with high energy, moreover, you keep me focused.  That's very helpful.  Without you I probably would keep most of the clutter. Gosh, it is so easy to bring stuff home, but it is so difficult to throw it out! Thank you for your support.

Converting An Apartment Into Haven

Thank you so much for your assistance with organizing my apartment. My closet is well structured, with everything at my fingertips. I especially love the sweater and shoe organizers. Putting shelves in the hall closet is extremely useful for storing my canned goods and miscellaneous. All of the extras you provided have converted my apartment into a comfortable haven.

Downsizing Easily

My husband and I have worked with Lindsay now for over two years. We began by organizing our former house to sell and move to a smaller home. Lindsay was there to help us to move and organized our new house. We then emptied and dispersed items from several storage units. And recently we have reorganize our lake house. We are thrilled. Finally everything is stream lined and organized and we both breath easier every day....thank you Lindsay

Fun Learning ‘British’ English While We Worked

Lindsay is a miracle worker. With a cheerful attitude and wise guidance my home has been transformed into a beautiful, satisfying place to work and live.

With a good eye for what works Lindsay is a quick study when it comes to analyzing specific needs and designing systems that really work.

Lindsay has just the right kind of energy to inspire you to make changes and try her practical organizing techniques.

And it’s a joy to learn a bit of British English along the way tool!!

Thanks Lindsay

Heart Felt Thank You

There was a crooked path,
Running through my apt.
So I called up Lindsay,
'caused my mind was zapped!!

She helped me to move,
And when I got Cancer,
There was Lindsay Hilsenbeck,
Always with the answer.

My files are now in order,
My space has been revamped,
I feel I'm in control again,
My home's no longer cramped.

Lindsay's more than organized,
She's a bright, fun, one of a kind.
Her fresh ideas and great attitude,
Have graced my life with peace of mind.

Thanks Lindsay!
