Life Organised – Professional Organising and Decluttering Services

I provide professional organising and decluttering services to individuals, helping them bring greater order and calm to their homes and digital lives. My services include physical decluttering, digital organisation and support for people who feel overwhelmed by their belongings, including those experiencing hoarding-related difficulties. I take a compassionate, respectful and non-judgemental approach, working at each client's pace and recognising that every person's circumstances are different. My aim is to help clients create practical, manageable systems that reduce stress, make everyday life easier and allow them to feel more comfortable and confident in their surroundings.

With many years of experience in managing, organising and digitising collections, alongside a qualification in teaching in the lifelong learning sector, I bring a practical, structured and supportive approach to helping people feel more organised and in control.

While I offer general decluttering and organising support, I have a particular interest in digital decluttering and hoarding support. My aim is to help clients create practical, sustainable systems that reduce stress, make everyday life more manageable and create calmer, more comfortable living spaces. I take a compassionate, patient and non-judgemental approach, recognising that everyone's circumstances are different and that lasting change takes time.

Based in Hackney, East London, I work with clients in person across Greater London and remotely with clients throughout the UK.

General Decluttering and Home Organisation

Whether you are struggling with an overflowing wardrobe, overcrowded bookshelves or piles of paperwork, I can help you create a more organised and manageable space.

Sessions typically last three hours and focus on one specific area of your home. As decluttering can be both physically and emotionally demanding, I often work with clients over several weeks or months, allowing us to make steady progress at a comfortable pace.

I regularly support older people and those living with disabilities or health conditions, and I am happy to undertake much of the physical work where needed. Your involvement is important, however, as you remain in control of decisions about your belongings.

I offer practical advice on sorting, storage and organisation, while gently encouraging you to consider letting go of items you no longer need or use. My approach is respectful and non-judgemental: there is no pressure to achieve perfection, and every decision about your belongings remains yours.

Digital Decluttering and Organisation

Struggling to find a file, locate an important email or keep track of your digital photographs? You are not alone.

Our computers, phones, tablets and cloud storage accounts can quickly become cluttered with unwanted files, duplicate photographs, unused apps and overflowing inboxes. Keeping everything organised can feel overwhelming, particularly when technology seems to change constantly.

I offer practical support with organising computers, external hard drives, cloud storage, tablets, mobile phones and email accounts. Together, we can sort through digital clutter, organise files and folders, streamline your inbox, and bring greater order to your digital life.

I can also help you organise your to-do lists and calendars, develop more effective digital habits, and make better use of the technology you already own.

As a qualified teacher in the lifelong learning sector, I enjoy helping people build their confidence with technology. My approach is patient and practical, with clear guidance tailored to your needs and abilities.

The aim is not simply to tidy up your digital devices, but to help you develop straightforward systems that you can maintain independently.

Photo Organising and Management

Digital photography makes it easier than ever to capture life's important moments. However, with thousands of images stored across phones, computers, hard drives and cloud accounts, finding and enjoying those photographs can become a challenge.

With many years of experience working in picture libraries throughout the UK, I have extensive knowledge of organising, digitising, captioning, keywording and managing photographic collections.

I can help you bring your photographs together, organise and categorise digital images, identify and manage duplicates, and make your collection easier to search and enjoy. I also offer the digitisation of physical photographs, image retouching and support with creating personalised photo books.

Whether you have boxes of old family photographs or thousands of digital images scattered across different devices, I can help you preserve your memories and make them accessible for years to come.

Life Organisation and Productivity

At Life Organised, I believe that organisation should make life easier, not harder.

Decluttering is only one part of creating a more manageable life. Having simple routines, effective systems and realistic ways of managing your time can also make a significant difference to your everyday wellbeing.

I offer practical guidance on productivity, time management, routines and everyday organisation, helping you find approaches that work for your circumstances, priorities and energy levels.

My focus is on small, achievable changes rather than rigid routines or unrealistic expectations. Whether you want to manage your daily tasks more effectively, reduce overwhelm or create more time for the things that matter to you, I can help you find a way forward.

Specialisms

Business and Work Productivity

I have called my business Life Organised because I want to offer a holistic service of how someone can lead a more organised and productive life. So, in addition to decluttering, I also provide productivity coaching and advice on how to lead a more organised life.


Digital and Computer Organising

Are you struggling to find that file or photo? You are not alone. Most people today own at least one electronic gadget, if not multiple. I am here to help! In addition to general decluttering of your physical belonging, I also offer digital organising and decluttering of your computer, external hard drives, cloud storage, tablet, mobile phone, and email inbox. Many people fear tackling their digital clutter as they don't feel competent at making the most of their ever-changing technological devices. I am a qualified teacher in the lifelong learning sector and have used computers before the majority could even spell the word. In our sessions together, I help people declutter unwanted files and apps and teach them a thing or two about how to be more competent at using their devices.

 

 


Hoarding Behaviour

I have specialist training in hoarding support, having completed courses with both the Association of Professional Declutterers and Organisers (APDO) and Hoarding Disorders UK. I take a compassionate, respectful and non-judgemental approach, recognising the complex challenges associated with hoarding. My aim is to support clients at their own pace, helping them make manageable progress towards safer, more comfortable living environments while respecting their individual needs and choices.
