“Dara is wonderful! She has helped me do what I considered impossible—organize my incredibly disordered study for our move from a house to to a smaller apartment with less storage space. I have worked with other organizers, but never with anyone like Dara. She is bright, intuitive, quick, extremely hard-working, and very motivating. Plus she is funny and makes the time pass painlessly when we are working together. She knows what she is doing and explains why she is doing it, so I learn from her. I am seeing amazing changes in my work space and with my attitude toward pulling it together.”

“Dara Zycherman is a joy to work with; she has worked with me through several projects both big and small. She is a wonderful combination of knowledgeable, proactive, and thoughtful. Dara knew just when to push me to get rid of things I didn’t need and how to help me make sense of the things that were important for me to keep. I love that I can find the things I need now when I look for them, and that I have better systems in place for what to keep.”

“Dara was invaluable in coming in and first assessing the situation and then helping me separate the “ must haves” from the “can easily do withouts” - and she did it in such a calm, patient and loving way that the task which I thought I’d never be able to do turned out to be very do-able indeed. I simply cannot recommend Dara enough for the work she does and most importantly, the sensitivity she has in approaching the whole process which she knows can really be an emotional one if you let it get the best of you. Dara made sure that never happened.”

“When I came to Dara, I had a dozen concurrent goals. Dara helped me to disentangle these goals so that I could prioritize them. Next, we devised a framework for me to decompose my goals into schedulable pieces, from the quarterly scale down to the weekly. I have completed a handful of the goals that we discussed and more are in the works. I am doing fewer things at once, and I am doing them well.”

“Within the first few minutes working with Dara, I knew I was in good hands. She got to work quickly, listened attentively to my goals and needs, and worked cooperatively with me on coming up with more efficient organizing solutions. When you are in the thick of your clutter, it starts to feel like you can never get out. Disarray finds a way to creep up, but Dara got me back on track living more simply and at ease.”

“I worked with Dara over multiple sessions and the transformation was not just with my belongings, it was also with the way I thought about the belongings in my home too. I am much more organized in my home and mind because of the way she helped me think differently. She was a very calming presence and thoughtful in how she articulated the process. I’m so thankful to Dara and will always recommend her!”

“Dara has the unique gift of being a patient and understanding second set of eyes to help you navigate the process of dismantling old, no longer useful systems of thought. Her style is relaxed, while motivating you to greatness! She helps you grow past mental blocks and get to a place of ease, fully empowered to make decisions based on what you actually need, not just what you're taught to believe you need. I always feel that a weight — both physical and emotional — is lifted after our conversations. As a result of Dara's insight, I now think more critically about the physical and emotional energy I delete and/or add into my home, workspace, relationships, and finances. My life is lighter and more fulfilling.”
