How does an O.C.D. professional organizer differ from the competition?

At Organize & Create Discipline®, we go beyond simply organizing your space. We collaborate with you to create order and then teach you how to maintain an organized lifestyle with a disciplined approach. While aesthetics are important, our primary focus is on functionality—streamlining your life so everything works better for you. Once that’s in place, we’ll help make it look great too!

What areas do you service?

We service mainly the Los Angeles area but have traveled all around the country and world providing our services.

At-home consultation vs phone consultation?

We find that clients are ready to jump right in on day one. That’s why we’ve streamlined our process with a quick phone consultation instead of an at-home visit. During the call, we discuss your needs and review photos of your space, so we’re fully prepared when we arrive.
If you prefer an in-home consultation, we’re happy to accommodate for a fee. However, if you proceed with our services, the consultation cost will be credited toward your project.

How do I schedule a session?
What happens if I need to cancel an appointment?

Life happens, and schedules change—we understand that. We accept cancellations/scheduling changes without penalty 48 hours in advance.

How do you charge?

Organizing services are charged by session or project with a 4-hour minimum per session. Please book a consultation for further pricing information.

How do you know where to start?

We start where you need the help most. Once we walk in your door we will do a thorough walk-through of your space with you to determine the goals, expectations, and timeline. The beginning can seem overwhelming, but that is why we are there with you.

What can I expect during an organizing session?

You can expect what you are willing to give, of yourself and of your space. If you want to change you will get change and in each session, you will find clarity through Organize & Create Discipline. As a professional organizing company servicing clients all around the world, we have found that each session is unique to the client, but one thing that is consistent is that if you set goals with us those goals will be accomplished before our departure.

Will I have to throw all my stuff away?

Of course not. Getting organized isn’t about getting rid of things, but getting rid of things allows you to really decide what is important in your life. Throwing things away can be a part of the process, but isn’t necessary. As you dive deeper into organizational bliss you will start making decisions that impact your surroundings and then have a direct connection with your belongings. Having trash bags on-site will be important as you continue the process of getting organized you will want to purge, donate and make room for new.

Do you design closets?

At O.C.D. Experience, we provide organizational consultations for your closets. We work directly with our O.C.D. closet specialist, who can build closets of all shapes, sizes, and functionalities tailored to your needs. Our partners are vital to creating a full-service experience for you.

Do I have to be home?

Nope. Although it is important for us to meet you before we enter your home and once trust has been established, you can feel free to do whatever you need to do while we do what we do best. It is important that we spend a small amount of time with you to go through your belongings prior to us organizing.
