Minima Organizing & Redesign

08/31/2026

"I recently reached out to Kristen and the Minima team to help my parents, who were transitioning to a new home. The team worked really well with them, especially as my parents have not done much decluttering and had lots of stuff to go through! I appreciated having them take the lead with this project—not only doing some decluttering but also making sure my parents' spaces are organized and accessible for them. I hope I can work with Minima again on a future project!" — Maggie M.

Renovating and designing a historic home is a constant practice in patience.

As an organizer with an architecture background, I often catch myself wanting to solve every spatial puzzle all at once. Learning to let go of the timeline—and quiet the inner critic—has been the ultimate lesson in slow, intentional design.

"I couldn't have made it through this move without the Minima team! They were flexible with a constantly shifting moving schedule, packed our things, unpacked and organized, and even worked while we were away on vacation! Best money I've ever spent!" — Krissy F.

"Kristen, Betsy, and her group at Minima were all beyond exceptional in their abilities to communicate, organize, and provide support during the stressful process of decluttering and organizing. There was impressive cooperation within the team and with us which made the process seamless. From the very beginning, Kristen was professional, kind, thoughtful about our specific needs, and obviously cares about her clients being happy with the services provided by her business. We struggled with some issues related to ADHD related clutter and her team worked together seamlessly (and patiently) to help reduce frustration associated with making multiple decisions related to decluttering. We can't give enough praise to Kristen and her crew; while decluttering may have a monetary cost, their services are worth every bit of it! We now have a lovely space to enjoy!" — Laura W.

"Alex and her team are seriously amazing. As an overwhelmed mom with ADHD, clutter feels very debilitating. We slowly had the Minima team come and organize the biggest problem areas in our house. I could not believe how much stuff we had once it was all laid out. It is such a huge weight off my (and my family's) shoulders to have them implement long-lasting systems. I've learned a ton as well and am so happy I found them to bring some simplicity and organization into our very busy lives. I can't wait until I work with them again! Thank you so much." — Katie C. / Richmond, VA

"Highly, highly recommend Minima for all things moving, packing and organizing. If you are reading reviews, then you need these people. Alex and her team are stellar. They were a huge help in planning a big move. The unpacking and organizing services are outstanding. The Minima team thoughtfully unpacked and organized our kitchen, primary bedroom and bathroom. My quality of life improved instantly. Minima unloads much of the stress of moving. I never knew such services existed before and will never move again without Minima in my corner." — Mary B.

"Kristen and I have been working together for over a year and I love how Minima's ethos on decluttering aligns with how Chinese medicine views it; when you declutter your space, energy can move more freely within. Healing starts with your environment… this is why working with Minima is so impactful for overall health and wellness." — Jelena N.
