What It Feels Like to Work With Cluttered Spaces
In their own words
Practical support. No judgment. A more workable way forward.
Cluttered Spaces combines executive function coaching with hands-on help in the places where daily life is actually happening. We work beside people to reduce immediate overwhelm, understand what keeps getting stuck, and build routines and systems that fit the person—not an idealized version of them.
The goal is not a picture-perfect room or a system that works only while we are there. It is a more functional home, stronger everyday skills, and a path forward that can keep working after we leave.
Every situation is different. These clients describe what changed when practical help, thoughtful coaching, and genuine respect came together.

Finding systems that fit the whole family
Cynthia did what I thought was not possible. She has worked in our home and with both of my children, and she has made such a meaningful difference for our entire family.
Cynthia walks into the messiness of our family life—with everyone busy and neurodivergent—and brings good ideas and no judgment. She doesn’t make you feel embarrassed about what isn’t working. She makes you feel understood and willing to try again.
What I love most is the way she works with my kids. Like so many moms, I have gone round and round about clean rooms. Cynthia was able to figure out what systems worked for each child—and what would motivate them to work toward a clean room. She celebrates their progress, meets them where they are, and brings a sense of calm and possibility to situations that can otherwise feel overwhelming.
Yes, Cynthia has helped us make our home more functional, and that has made more room for us to be together. She has helped us understand one another better, move forward when we felt stuck, and create systems that feel possible for our actual lives. She is knowledgeable, practical, deeply compassionate, and truly one of a kind. I recommend her wholeheartedly.

Making a home feel like her own
I reached out to Cynthia for a full house reset after a breakup. Moving furniture, organizing spaces, and a general deep clean (multiple pets!)
I work a full time and a part time job. I also go to school full-time. I just don’t have a lot of extra time to keep up with everything but I wanted the house to feel more like mine.
Not only did Cynthia make the space feel more like me, she was able to capitalize on the square footage of the house, making it seem so much bigger!
My house has never felt more clean and organized. And I have never felt like I could actually keep up with it. Now I do!

A workable plan for a complicated transition
Preparing the Eastside Church space for its next use was a large, complicated project with a tight timeline and many moving parts. Cynthia helped us take what felt overwhelming and turn it into a clear, workable plan. She identified what needed to happen, organized the work into manageable tasks, coordinated people and supplies, and kept the project moving when unexpected problems came up.
Much like any other nonprofit, our work is really important—and sometimes overwhelming. There is a lot to do and not enough hands. What Cynthia did was organize our stuff so we could serve our people really well.
Cynthia brings genuine care for all the people involved. She didn’t simply tell us what needed to be done—she worked alongside us, helped volunteers understand where to begin, and made sure our time and energy were used well. Her ability to see both the big picture and the small details was invaluable.
Because of Cynthia’s support, we made significant progress toward creating a clean, functional, and welcoming space. I would absolutely recommend her to any school, church, family, or organization facing a complicated transition or a project that has become difficult to manage.
