What previous attendees said:

“I really can’t thank you enough for the workshop. I learned and took away so much that will assist me in assessing if Working with Hoarders is for me. It was a great investment as the learnings and information provided are transferable to my current business, in fact I applied elements to a job with a new client 48 hours after the workshop. The benefits were immediate and has helped me become a better organiser. I am grateful to have the opportunity to learn from experienced organisers who have such in-depth knowledge on this subject and who freely share so much information and their experiences. You are definitely the Go To Team. Thank you Angela and Wendy.” ~ Jillian Hannon, Sorted.Organised.Done.

“Thank you both so much for sharing your wisdom and expertise with us. I learnt so many practical techniques that I can use straight away and it has given me more confidence to keep working with people who have hoarding issues. These ladies have a wealth of experience to share. I would recommend this course to anyone who is thinking about working with clients who hoard or even to Professional Organisers who just want to extend their general repertoire of skills.” ~ Angela Hunter, Organise For Life

“So many aspects of this course, in particular the forms provided, are very useful for my own business and have provided me with a great deal of food for thought in terms of the various stakeholders with which I can align my business. I could go on and on – fabulous, thought provoking.” ~ Robyn Amott, Bless This Mess

“I have learnt so much about Hoarders from this in depth and excellently presented workshop, which will not only benefit me when it comes to working with Hoarders but just in my everyday dealing with my current and new clients. The information, tools and techniques can be implemented for all clients, chronically disorganised or not!” ~ Kristy Dillon, Kristy Dillon Design

“Congratulations on presenting such a fabulous training day. The time and effort you both put into developing the content was evident and we wanted to acknowledge your efforts as well as your openness to sharing your experiences and valuable insights with us all. We feel privileged to have been a part of this inaugural course and as a result we will be able to add so much value to the services we provide to our clients.” ~ Jo & Mel, Allsorts Organising
