“Put it this way, she’s changed my life.”
I was lost. Totally lost. I didn’t know where to start. I’d given up.
I’d tried a professional organiser who was good but not what I actually needed. I spent a lot of money on it but it all unravelled and I was back in square one in quite a bad place.
After looking for a long time ClearMind’s website appeared, and it was the first time I ever thought “now THIS is the type of thing I need!”
I was apprehensive because of my temperament. I really struggle to meet new people, never mind someone new in my house, I was so nervous I wasn’t going to click with them. It was my last hope, and I didn’t really expect it to last a long time - but it did. I really didn’t think it would even last a month because I find it hard to get on with people. But five months later, I’m still here!
When I met Sheree, I was really happy with how she actually listened to everything I said. She listened to every one of my quirks and allowed me to explain why I need things a specific way and actioned them without judgement.
Sheree is easy to work with because she listens and takes instruction. She also makes counter suggestions which I always listen to and consider because I really value her opinion. She’s also kind to my dog and gives her a treat every time she comes in. I have really good banter with her, most times we laugh the entire session. Even my pals can’t believe I like her, because I don’t get on with anyone! They all laughed at me saying she wouldn’t last a week, but her sense of humour really helps with my quirks and personality.
Her slow and steady approach is exactly what I needed. Even if it seems like something should take a certain amount of time, ClearMind’s method is much more valuable. I needed a full home declutter as every room was piled high with my belongings which heightened my agoraphobia. I wasn’t sure about the 2-hour capped sessions because I just wanted it all done ASAP, but over the months I’ve realised how good the slow approach has been for me. What initially looked like “organising and decluttering” became much more. Week to week I could ask Sheree to support me with things that built up between sessions like my bins or laundry etc. This flexibility has made a lot of “hidden progress” as others can’t see the amount of work that’s done beyond the “decluttering”.
Put it this way, she’s changed my life.
I highly recommend ClearMind to any neurodivergent person who need a hand at home.
— K, Leith"I wish I'd contacted them sooner!”
I've been using ClearMind's services for three months now for cleaning and organising and I wish I'd contacted them sooner! After moving into a new flat I felt so overwhelmed as nothing I owned had a place and I'd accumulated clutter that needed organising before I could deep clean. I'm neurodivergent and work full time and struggled to find time and energy to tackle what seemed like an insurmountable task. ClearMind has helped me break down each room and task in a kind, non-judgemental and accessible way.
So far we've organised my wardrobe, kitchen cupboards, and even my cupboard of doom, and the reduction in mental load and overwhelm has been so noticeable. In between sessions every two weeks I've managed to tackle several big organising and decluttering tasks by myself, which I'd never normally do because I felt so stuck and unable to choose what to organise first.
I also massively appreciate that when my physical disabilities prevent me from directly working with ClearMind for decluttering and organising, we've always worked together to find accessible solutions, whether that's me sitting down the whole time or just taking a break and focusing on cleaning instead.
I can't recommend ClearMind highly enough!
— B, Gilmerton“became a breeze!”
With the systems we implemented with ClearMind tidying my room, even if it feels really bad, became a breeze! Everything has a dedicated space and it's just the matter of picking things up and putting them away!
— M, Blackford“so efficient and professional”
Used ClearMind's services yesterday and Sheree was so, so helpful!!
I had a huge organising job that was too overwhelming to do, but one that would have been ultimately cost-saving and time-saving in the future.
Sheree was so kind and gentle, and does not judge. She’s also so efficient and professional.
I highly recommend her!!
— H, Meadowbank“excellent at tailoring the service to meet my specific needs”
Sheree went above and beyond in helping me organise my space. As a creative individual who is neurodivergent, I tend to accumulate a lot of items that I want to keep, as well as some that I'm willing to let go of. I appreciated her support in helping me sort through them. She was excellent at tailoring the service to meet my specific needs and were very attuned to making the experience as accessible and welcoming as possible.
I really valued her consideration of storage solutions and her efforts to check in with me about what I was comfortable sorting and what I preferred to keep private. The respectful care she put into this service made me wish I had reached out sooner!
— C, Longstone“absolutely invaluable”
ClearMind have been helping me with cleaning and organising for the last 6 months. Their services have been absolutely invaluable to me as someone who suffers from burnout due to being neurodiverse. They have never made me feel judged and have supported me in understanding my own abilities. I would highly recommend ClearMind to anyone needing household cleaning and organising support.
