Kathleen D. Crombie / Professional Organizer in Oakland, California

I have been organizing children, adults and organizations for years. I am fascinated with people. I specialize in organizing bright, intelligent, visual folks with multiple interests and passions. I focus on a person’s strengths and utilize cognitive-behavioral techniques to make lasting changes. I collaborate with family, friends and treatment providers to develop a comprehensive plan. I blend my extensive experience in mental health with current research in helping with chronic disorganization, clutter management and hoarding. I have network of contractors, designers, estate sale/appraisers, consignment/resell stores, charity organizations and mental health professionals in the San Francisco Bay Area to assist my clients.

I have worked for 15 years in the Department of Psychiatry and 10 years in the Department of Women and Infant Services at Alta Bates Summit Medical Center, Berkeley, CA. I facilitate support groups, conduct workshops and consult/coach parents at Summit Center in Walnut Creek and Oakland, CA.
