asheville woman needs moving and organizing help

Hi, I’m Alyssa. I am a hearthcraft practitioner, home organizer, and housekeeping educator.

I specialize in the sweet spot where keeping house intersects with mental health, habit building, and personal growth. My work is spiritually oriented yet grounded in the knowledge that mess is not a moral failing or character weakness. Likewise, disorderliness is not an innate personality trait. Tidiness and organization are learnable skills.

You are in a relationship with your home. All relationships need tending. Together, we can examine what is really going on in this intimate relationship & what you can do to nourish the bond. Contact me to book a free discovery call!

Online Workshops

I teach adults how to play house. My workshops cover a broad range of housekeeping topics; everything from holistic time management to keeping house with kids to decoupling housekeeping from female oppression.

Although we may not realize it, our relationship to home and housekeeping is one of the most intimate relationships in our life, akin to a marriage or family bond.

As we examine this one relationship, we uncover and unravel deeper layers to how we perceive ourselves, our abilities, and our lives. 

I offer my clients a nonjudgmental space to :

✔ Dismantle internalized myths about self-worth and productivity

✔ Unpack unhelpful beliefs about scarcity and abundance

✔ Get in right-relationship to home and housekeeping

How can I help you?

Many of my clients are dancing with chronic illness, depression, anxiety, sensory processing needs, ADHD, CPTSD, neurodivergence, differences in ability, hoarding, and shopping addiction.

A tidy and clean home supports many other kinds of care tasks, and can be the most impactful for people most likely to shut down when faced with a big mess. 

Niching into homemaking is a safe and practical way to develop anti-perfectionism, self compassion, personal responsibility, nervous system regulation, and embodiment (action orientation that facilitates long term integration and longer term change). It is a tangible area to watch where we get stuck in self defeating beliefs, negative feedback loops, and avoidance. 

I support people during times of transition and change, including:

  • Moving out & moving in 

  • Working from home or making major career changes 

  • Callings to creative enterprise or spiritual vocation 

  • Caring for elderly parents, new babies, or growing children

  • Adjusting to sudden changes in health & ability 

  • Riding waves of depression & anxiety

My work focuses on three main areas: 

  1. Decluttering & grief ritual

  2. Home organization & systems thinking

  3. Sustainable housekeeping & gentle habit building 

Are you ready for more simplicity, spaciousness, and ease in your life?

Testimonials

  • "The organizer for organizers. As a professional organizer of 10 years myself I have been delighted to have the absolute pleasure of receiving what I offer from the wonderful Alyssa. Under the guide of her quiet magic we have taken my space to the next level of Home for me, as each thing I clear gifts me more space inside myself and healing of the trauma of many residence transitions in my history. Liberation! I feel befriended. Free to be human. Authentically met. Welcome to have special needs (neurodivergence, a body that needs breaks to wiggle, an external processing mind)."

  • "The service that Alyssa provides is one that I have been needing and seeking for years, often without even knowing how or what to ask for. I’ve attended one of Alyssa’s workshops, and regularly work one-on-one with her, and the volume and quality of interconnected skillsets she weaves together in our sessions blow me away every. single. time. It never gets old. I don’t envy her the task of describing what she does, because it is so layered and nuanced and abundant. I can tell you that she meets my depression, anxiety, shame, and executive dysfunction with the same competence and care that she does my physical clutter and disorganization. She pulls tenderly and insightfully at the threads of my distorted core beliefs when they surface. She creates an interpersonal container where stigma just does not have any power; the clarity, curiosity, and inspiration which rise in me to fill up that space instead has been remarkable and healing to experience. She is funny, and real. She extends so much dignity and compassion and relatability to me in the face of what once felt too vulnerable and exposing to let anyone see."
