Behind the Name

When I was a kid growing up in New England, one of my favorite swimming spots with my brothers was a place called Twin Brooks. We've since grown up and spread out across the county, but the heart of the place remains. 

Brooks represent movement, growth, and change. At the same time, the constancy of Twin Brooks helped shape my identity. Twin Brooks was there for me every summer for swimming and fishing, and every winter for ice skating. Having a place to go to recreate with people I love was priceless. It's important to me that both my business and I are fluid and reliable - allowing me to help you through your own times of growth and change, while staying true to your core identity.  

My business is also multifaceted. I offer "twin" services of professional organizing and psychotherapy so you can find relief in any part of your life or your home. There is a strong connection between mental health issues and clutter and hoarding. Just as brooks can run parallel, you can choose one, the other, or both services. Professional organizing and psychotherapy can be woven together to make an even bigger impact.
