Serving Contra Costa, Alameda
and Solano Counties
Welcome! I’m Jen, the person behind the name, Livable Spaces, that makes magic happen in your home or business. It took me two other career paths before I found my calling--organizing! I was a Human resources manager, a caterer/restaurant owner and now, an organizer.
In your home, whether you feel a low level of anxiety from your clutter to a guarded level of more severe disorganization, I crave the transformative feeling of removing your clutter and creating your space into something that is freeing, balanced, and life-changing. I have a creative eye for detail and a knack for managing time. I will take my strengths and passions, unleash them in your home or business, and together we will reclaim your space so you can use it as intended.
For your business, my goal is to assist you with steps toward your short or long-term goals, so that your business will thrive and reach its full potential. We will collaborate to find a solution(s) to your project, problem or challenge, by offering my organizational management skills, professional human resources management experience , and marketing background, as well as my hands-on entrepreneurial approach!
I’ve really seen it all (well, let’s just say, I’ve seen a lot!) --- and your space or business is always approached from a non-judgmental and confidential position. Together we will work on your vision and form a partnership to create your livable space!
When I’m not organizing, I love being with my family, cooking/baking and entertaining, traveling all around the world, boating, camping & hiking, to putting on my dancing shoes to go ballroom dancing! I am passionate about education and have always been a member of the PTA Board as President, VP, Communication Chair, Education Chair and more at my children's school.
Warmly,

I often get asked what’s your “specialty”, or “What’s the biggest job you’ve done?”, or “Do you organize with people who have hoarding disorder or ADHD?”, and the answer is “YES”, I have many specialities and have worked all size jobs, and “Yes”, I love working with people with hoarding disorder or ADHD!” Over the years I’ve seen it all (well I’ve seen a lot), but to make it simple, I offer three core services.
Specialized Organizing Services
Certified Professional Organizer in Chronic Disorganization® (CPO-CD®)
As a Certified Professional Organizer in Chronic Disorganization® (CPO-CD®), I am uniquely qualified with the knowledge and experience to help you with chronic disorganization, hoarding disorder, aging, or ADHD issues.
Chronic Disorganization
If you’ve been disorganized for a long time, your quality of life is impacted, even though you’ve tried to get organized, and your future looks bleak--you are likely chronically disorganized.
But don’t despair, this where I enter. I can provide you with support and strategies you’ll need to live in a space that’s functional and supports your specific lifestyle.
Hoarding Disorder
The Institute for Challenging Disorganization (ICD), provides The Clutter–Hoarding Scale(TM), which is an assessment tool, to give professional organizers definitive parameters related to health and safety. As a professional organizer, I work up to Level IV. The levels in the scale are progressive, with Level I as the lowest and Level V the highest. If you are open to change, I will be there for you and use my expertise to help you through the process of creating livable spaces.
Aging
I consider myself an advocate of my senior clients by connecting with their heartfelt concerns, using language that is understandable, being patient, listening to their needs and translating unfamiliar jargon of the 21st century. I am here to help my clients navigate through their mail, digital data, filing, computer/mobile phone, and bill paying. In today’s fast paced world of technology, I can teach you how to work all your devices. I’m often asked, “How do you know this?” I know because I understand the intuitive process of technology, and I am fluent in “techy” language. I know how to operate all kinds of devices, especially Apple products (MacBook Pro, iPads, iPhones, iWatches).
“Look no more...help is on the way! “
ADHD
ADHD is a real thing, it's just not a "kid" thing. In your social life, your work life, and in your home life, it's always there. If you are experiencing the symptoms of clutter as a result of your ADHD, you're not alone. You're in the right place. I specialize in ADHD, so I am acutely aware of unique challenges, feelings of being overwhelmed, as well as cognitive and emotional issues, which may interfere with living a stress-free and sustainable quality of life.

“Jen managed to leverage all her resources in a way that led to some marvelous outcomes!
