Organizing for real life

Life gets messy. Your home doesn’t have to be.

Professional home organizer Michelle from Gladly Sorted tidying up a messy kitchen pantry

Hi! I’m Michelle, a New York City professional home organizer and founder of Gladly Sorted.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the clutter in your apartment? Or constantly playing Tetris with your wardrobe or kitchen cabinet? Or maybe you seem to always be looking for things you know you have… somewhere?

You’re not alone — and you don’t have to tackle it alone either.

I help busy families and professionals in New York create tidy, organized homes that actually work for real lives.

With a practical, judgment-free approach, I focus on functional solutions that last, so you can spend less time navigating stuff and more time on the people and things that matter.

Let’s get you Gladly Sorted!

Kind words

  • “I thoroughly enjoyed working with you on this project. You've taken something that felt so overwhelming and anxiety-inducing and made it feel like zen and well-organized home, with a system set up that even the messiest person (aka my boyfriend) can do it... with some training. I can't believe how different the home feels now that you are done with the main space, looking forward to our next project together!”

  • "Michelle is a natural and intuitive organizer. She balanced the needs of grown ups and children with respect to our pantry. She understood the task perfectly and went to work quickly. The results speak for themselves! Our children can find their snacks. We love tea and our tea is displayed clearly, in a user-friendly way. Without a doubt, we are going to work with Michelle to organize other parts of our home!"

  • "I highly recommend Michelle for any organizing project you might have! She was able to transform a cluttered space that had been giving me so much stress, into an organized and simple system — and made the whole process easy and enjoyable. She brought such a warm and kind energy into our home, and left us with a space that I know will bring us a lot of joy. Thanks Michelle!"

  • "Michelle from Gladly Sorted not only decluttered and organized my pantry, but she also gave me tips to how I can continue to keep the space organized! It was such a pleasure working with her from the initial 30mins call to discuss what I wanted done, to going through the actual process and to the email she sent talking about what we had done and the storage solutions that would work best for the space. I need to have her organize my closet next! Money well spent."

  • "WOW! I didn’t know how much a closet makeover could change everything! As a busy Mom, I had ignored our linen closet ever since my daughter was born roughly 3 years ago. Michelle helped me realize that there were so many unused items in my closet (either because of sentimental reasons or pure inertia to go through everything). Michelle’s calm and patient presence helped me decide whether to keep or donate items as an initial step to organizing. One key quote from my experience with Michelle: “If you clear out the items that don’t serve you, you will have an easier time finding the items you do use.” I encourage everyone to give Michelle a call and schedule a consultation - not only will your space feel fresh and organized, you will feel freer and more efficient in your day-to-day life. Thanks Michelle, from one Mom to another! Xoxo"

  • "This was exactly what I needed. With Michelle’s expert help, I was finally able to declutter bags of items that had been occupying not just physical space, but mental space too. I’ve always found it hard to part with things, but Michelle reframed my perspectives to let go and recognize that some things have served their purposes in previous seasons. I appreciate her approach: non-judgmental and empathetic. The results have been transformative. I feel lighter and more in control. I now enjoy using what I own - because I can see everything clearly and know where it belongs. I've expanded this to other aspects of my home like my pantry and art areas now. If you’re considering working with a professional organizer, I can’t recommend Gladly Sorted enough. I truly couldn’t have done this without Michelle's support."

  • “I had approached Michelle to help me organize my shoe closet. As a shoe lover and designer, I have many shoes and they were everywhere. After Michelle assessed my shoe closet and understood my needs for my shoe space, she was able to recommend appropriate storage organizers and reorganized my shoe shelves that freed up so much more space. All my 100+ pairs of shoes are now visible at one place. I will definitely recommend Michelle to organize your home because of her strong forte of being able to organize your home with the appropriate storage solutions that do not break your bank.”
