Welcome ! I'm Charlotte, founder of The Home Spruce. I have a sympathetic, and non-judgemental approach to helping people who need support in decluttering or organising their homes. I believe that now, more than ever, your home environment should be your sanctuary. For me, mental well-being is a priceless asset, and if we choose to invest the time in restoring order in our home the benefits to our mindset can be numerous. You will save time, regain clarity, feel calmer and be prouder of the home you live in.
Specialisms
Hoarding behaviour
Over the last 4 years I've had relationships with local charities and councils to help tenants facing eviction, be able to stay in their homes.
I've attended accredited hoarding support courses and also delivered a workshop to Oxford County Council on how they can identify, help and approach clients with hoarding behaviours. I believe in a person centred, Holistic approach to providing the best solution for landlords/ homeowners and the individual living through it.
Some of my most meaningful encounters, and work I'm most proud of have come as a result of assisting in these cases.
I've seen it all, and nothing fazes me. I'm always keen to develop a relationship with the person who's living through it and help get them to the best outcome for a happy, safe and enjoyable life that they feel in control of.
ADHD
As a mother of a child with ASD and having ADHD myself I have a lived experience and have been on many well respected courses to expand my curiosity on how the neuro-divergent behaviour show up in people.
For me, the best people to ask for advice is people who have lived it, not just learnt it. This, combined with my coaching experience, I believe I have a great understanding of how to help people optimise their skill, ask for help with the things they struggle with, and empower them to boost their self belief.
Life Coaching
Certified Level 5 Holistic Mindset Coach
Currently aiming for my level 7 ( due March 2026)
Mindset is so intrinsic in facilitating long term results in decluttering. My experience with CBT informed coaching can help clients with long term chronic disorganisation and with "feeling stuck" in life and home.
Home Staging
A keen eye for all things aesthetic. Attention to detail and having moved several clients, i know how to best prepare a home before selling.
Charlotte was like a breath of fresh air, she exuded positivity, didn't allow me to be too down on my lackadaisical approach to tidiness.
Charlotte provided me with new techniques allowing me to arrange my clothes in better order and with more space, labelled boxes/trays/drawers giving items a home to always be returned.
Give yourself the gift of time and The Home Spruce, with all the physical and psychological advantages this entails.
