Certified Decluttering Coach/Organizing Specialist
I am a Speed of Life, No Mess Certified Decluttering Coach trained by Dana K White of A Slob Comes Clean. I provide coaching on decluttering in person or virtually using a 5-step method that guarantees progress and only progress!
As a decluttering coach, I will...
1. help you learn the skills to declutter in a way that avoids a lot of the emotional decision making AND prevents you from making a bigger mess, which is the number one reason people dread decluttering. It does NOT have to get worse before it gets better!
2. help you learn how to make decluttering a normal part of caring for your home, at whatever pace works best for you. Dana's bestselling book is called Decluttering at the Speed of Life. Decluttering is not a weekend project; it is a lifestyle that allows you to gain control over your home and keep control.
3. help you learn how to maintain the progress you make so you don't end up back where you started, or worse!

Dana K White, Decluttering at the Speed of Life
Hello, my name is Lisa Seaman, and I am the owner of The Decluttering Difference, a coaching program based on Dana K. White's No Mess Decluttering Method. Dana is the author of three books on decluttering and home management, including the bestselling book Decluttering at the Speed of Life.
Through sharing her personal journey with clutter and overwhelm in her books, Podcast and YouTube videos, Dana began hearing what a lasting decluttering difference her No Mess Decluttering Method was making in people's lives. Even for those who had never been able to declutter successfully before, like me.
After decades of struggling with clutter and overwhelm in my home, Dana's guaranteed method of making progress and only progress is what made the difference in my life. Her 5-step process takes the emotion out of decluttering and makes a real and lasting difference while preventing a bigger mess from being made (the number one reason people put off decluttering). No more shifting stuff from one room to the next and no more piles!
Due to the success of her process, Dana has trained and certified Decluttering Coaches to teach her methods. I knew immediately upon her offering her certification that I needed to share this process with others! Working towards having my home decluttered and under control has given me more time and peace of mind. It has created a calmer atmosphere in my home and has allowed me to be more present and relaxed for my family, all while raising a child with special needs.
Let me help you make a lasting decluttering difference in your home too!

Done in person or virtually. This is an educational and action-packed session for those who are familiar with Dana's process and just want some individual coaching to improve their understanding of the steps. We will work in real time using Dana K White's 5-step process for Decluttering at the Speed of Life. The first 15-minutes is typically spent going over any questions you have and then we work together in an area to implement the 5 steps in a One Hour Better fashion. Prior to the session, I provide you with some quizzes to help me understand your unique situation and some videos to watch of Dana's core strategies. The quizzes and videos are optional but do allow you to take full benefit of the session. I'll also provide a glossary of the terms Dana often uses when she is describing her strategies and a printable of the 5 steps.
Note: if done in person and drive time is over 30 minutes from my location, a travel fee will be added.

To ensure that you make the progress you desire in your home and achieve the transformation you've been longing for and deserve, I have chosen to offer most of my services as packages rather than hourly rates. This decision is rooted in the understanding that tackling months or years worth of clutter, and establishing sustainable organizational systems, requires a more comprehensive approach. It's about embarking on a journey together, where we address the underlying causes of clutter, implement personalized strategies, and celebrate the progress made at each step.
By opting for packages, we have the time and flexibility to dive deep into your unique situation, implement solutions that align with your lifestyle, and create lasting change. I'm dedicated to being your partner in this process and ensuring that you experience the full benefits of decluttering and organizing, not just in the short term, but for the long haul.
Thank you for entrusting me to help you in your decluttering and organizing journey. I look forward to working closely with you to create spaces that are calm and inviting. A place you want to come home to!
Please contact us at thedeclutteringdifference@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Yes, I offer a free 15-minute consultation over the phone or via other methods of chatting.
I believe in-person results in getting more accomplished because I am physically there to help, but I've seen some pretty amazing transformations virtually via Google Meets and even Facetime. In person costs more because of the extra time it may take for me to travel and, because of the work I do to take donated items to a donation center. I can travel up to 1.5 hours from my home. I live near Lancaster, PA. If traveling over 30 minutes from my location, a travel fee will be applied.
90 minutes to 8 hours. I prefer at least 2 hours at a time if I'm going to travel over 30 minutes from my location. On average, most people split their time up into 2-hour sessions.
As a coach, my goal is to teach you the skills of decluttering without making a bigger mess and to help you reach your clutter threshold. Your clutter threshold is the point at which you have decluttered enough that you can get things back in place in each room in a 5 minute or less pick-up. Yes, you CAN achieve that in your home! Your clutter threshold is not immediately known, so trying to organize before we know how much needs to be decluttered is not recommended. This process involves you in every decision so yes, you need to be there. I'll be honest, it is a longer process than hiring a professional organizer to come in and do the work for you, but the results will be yours AND remember, you can't organize clutter! That tends to result in shifting things from one place to the next and making piles.
I find that Dana's method is the key to being successful with decluttering, so yes, that is what I prefer. This is a great conversation to have during our 15-minute consultation so I can hear what concerns you might have with the method.
Donations that will fit in the back of a midsize SUV. I cannot take trash, recycling or chemicals.
