The Work
Both businesses under the Collective share a common foundation: a strengths-based, collaborative approach that respects your intelligence and assumes you are capable of solving your own problems with the right support.
I’m Amy
I’m a Chicago-based Certified Professional Organizer® and life coach. I work with people who are ready to stop trying harder and start building a life that fits.
I came to this work the long way around. I spent 20 years in a demanding career, rose to a senior level, and eventually burned out completely. When I rebuilt, I started with organizing: it was concrete, useful, and I was good at it. Over time, I grew increasingly curious about the patterns I kept seeing beneath the clutter: the difficulty initiating, the inconsistent follow-through, the gap between knowing and doing. That curiosity eventually led me to coaching.
Both businesses grew from the same source: a sincere interest in why ADHD and neurodivergent people get stuck and what it actually takes to move forward. I built them for people who are smart and self-aware and tired of being told to try harder.
My Work
Amy Louise Organizing is a Chicago-based consulting and coaching practice serving clients virtually throughout the continental U.S. and Canada.
My work focuses on the layer most organizing approaches never address: executive function, the cognitive skills that make it possible to get things done and achieve our goals.
For ADHD and neurodivergent people, the problem is rarely the stuff. It's everything that has to happen before, during, and after you try to get organized.
Strategies, structure, and support that fit how your brain actually works make all the difference.
Unlocking Home is my signature eight-week program, where you begin to address challenges you've been living with for years and arrive at solutions that stick because they’re uniquely yours.
Amy Louise Coaching is a virtual practice for adults navigating overwhelm, inconsistent follow-through, and patterns that have become harder to manage as demands have increased. Many clients are dealing with ADHD or executive function challenges; others simply recognize themselves in those patterns without a formal diagnosis.
Coaching offers a focused, consistent process for understanding what's driving those patterns and building habits that fit your real life.
Sessions are held on Zoom for clients in the U.S. and Canada.
