“Today I listened to the program you did in 2006-I have ADD, Do I have to be Disorganized too. I wanted to tell you of all the 'classes' I have listened to the way this was structured and you kept on track has been one of the most helpful ones I have listened to. Thank you so much for understanding 'our' needs as well as you do.” — Cindy RR, FL
“Carrie, the Gold VIP program has been wonderful. ADD is a tough situation and coaching, especially with you, has helped me a lot. I come to each of our calls with a sense of excitement and hope and always leave our calls with a surge of confidence and a renewed sense of strength. I know that I will be able to accomplish whatever plans we create and that they will move me towards my overall goals.
Practically speaking, the best thing about coaching has been that I have been able to learn how to help myself and learn techniques that really make sense to me. With your help, I have been able to devise new strategies that help me get through my days productively. I have created new systems to handle paperwork and bills. I have learned new ways to make decisions about the kinds of things that I need to keep in my life and the types of things that I can let go of.
Of all of the things I’ve used to help myself over all of these years having you as my coach has been the best.” — Barb R., FL

"I cannot believe how much junk I was able to clear out since Tuesday - junk, papers, e-mails, etc....I almost had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming. My place looks better than it has in years, and I feel like it would have taken many months to do this on my own. Now that many of my storage areas are cleared out, I actually have room to store stuff there that has been sitting out because I had no place to put it. When my space is clear around me, I'm able to think much more clearly and work more efficiently, and can really see space being made for the kind of life I want! (Not just physical space, but time and freedom.) I can also feel my self confidence starting to grow, because without piles and junk around me, I'm not constantly reminded of the habits I've been trying to change. Thank you so much for all you've helped me to accomplish in just one session!" — L.R., MN
"Thank you Carrie, your information is both informative, supportive and comforting." - L. Singer, NY
“Carrie, Working with you has been such a liberating experience! With your guidance, I have been able to tackle piles of clutter and paperwork which have been interfering with my life for too long and draining me of my time and energy. In talking with you, you have helped me to recognize what’s important, and that the things I choose to keep need to make me happy or have a valid purpose for being in my life. More importantly, you’ve enabled me to make better decisions, follow through with goals, and feel better about myself in the process. Your time has been a true gift, and for that I will always be grateful! Thank you!” — Tina Traina, NJ
“I loved the audio class. I especially like your sensible, practical approach to procrastination and organization. Your approach and tips take into account who each person is.

“Thanks to your insights and knowledge as an AD/HD coach, you are uniquely able to address the common problems that we are facing. You put our group at ease by first sharing your knowledge of the issues, and then sharing solutions to these common stumbling blocks. Your relaxed style, and your humor, make the time spent listening to you delightful. Your stories and examples are down to earth, and so we all felt that you were part of the world that we are living in.” — Jane Milrod, Coordinator, Princeton/Mercer CHADD
“The power of being coached by Carrie was magnified by the power of the group. I not only got my needs met in terms of accountability and breaking down tasks but I also learned a lot from hearing Carrie work with the other 'coachees'. The extra bonus is that this was all at a more affordable rate than individual work would have been.” — Jenifer, Vancouver, Canada

“It’s been only 1 week since we talked and I’ve already organized my office and saved over $500. I found errors on bills that I wouldn’t have taken the time to review before. By the way, that $500 doesn’t include the money I am saving on late fees or money I’m saving by not buying things I already had but couldn’t find.” — Doreen, NJ
“It’s amazing how having a system that works for me can give me so much free time. At the end of the day yesterday I stood in my clean office and realized I had gained almost an hour by not having to hunt things down. Thank you, thank you for your part in this. ” — Carol, NJ
“I have been trying my best to fight the chaos alone for a year. Though I've made some in roads, progress has been painfully slow and limited until I met you and began to see some effective approaches to achieving projects that are difficult for me. The work I've done in the first week with you would have taken me 4-6 months on my own if I would have thought of doing it on my own. Your questions helped me evaluate what was most important to me and to work effectively, utilizing my strengths, to make that happen.” — Barb, FL
“As I look around my office I must admit, though I keep the systems well in place, I'm a freak on a daily basis. My floor is "littered' with paper. The good news is that tomorrow it all gets "filed" somewhere. You've been an unbelievable asset - and, you can quote me any time.” — Joan, NJ
“Carrie gave a fabulous presentation to SEPTA, Special Education Parent- Teacher Association, on the topic of Teaching Your Child to be Organized.

“Carrie's help was invaluable. Because she took the time to understand how my small business functions, we were both able to see the gaping holes in my systems for organizing paper and computer files and more importantly figure out ways to close them. I have started implementing our ideas, and I am already feeling more efficient and in control. Thank you Carrie!” — Dianne, NJ
