If You're a Professional Organizer, You Have Chronically Disorganized Clients
* Please note this is a Virtual Chapter Meeting - we will NOT be meeting in person this month *
If you’re a professional organizer, chances are excellent that you will at some point work with clients who are chronically disorganized. They may have a brain-based challenge, like ADHD, a mental health issue, like bipolar disorder, or a disability, like a traumatic brain injury or autism. This panel discussion will present client challenge examples, concrete solutions used, and the results of those techniques.
After this session, participants should be able to
- Understand what chronic disorganization is
- Identify the characteristics of a chronically disorganized client and what challenges s/he may be facing
- Begin to explore using unique and out-of-the-box organizing techniques when working with CD clients
- Turn to resources on chronic disorganization for further learning
