Your Space Isn’t Just Cluttered—Your Brain Might Be, Too

If you live with ADHD, you know that clutter doesn’t just feel frustrating—it can feel mentally exhausting. For neurodivergent brains, a cluttered space isn’t just inconvenient—it’s activating.

At Home Method, we support many clients with ADHD and understand that typical organizing advice doesn’t always apply. Co-owner Nicole, who has ADHD and is raising a neurodivergent son, brings firsthand experience to the organizing systems she creates for families with similar needs. Our approach is different. We create systems that work with your brain—not against it.

Why Clutter Feels So Overwhelming

  • Visual Overload: Your brain is constantly processing every item in your space, even when you're not actively looking at it.

  • Decision Fatigue: “Where do I even start?” is a real question—and it stops a lot of people in their tracks.

  • Shame Spirals: When clutter piles up, it’s easy to feel like you're failing. (Spoiler: you're not.)

Why Decluttering Helps ADHD Brains

✔ Less visual noise = more mental clarity
✔ Reduces the number of daily micro-decisions
✔ Supports emotional regulation
✔ Creates functional, low-maintenance systems

Let’s Work With Your Brain, Not Against It

You don’t need more willpower. You need a system that’s realistic, flexible, and designed for your life. Let us help you create a home that calms your brain instead of overstimulating it.
