Hoarding
Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults struggling with hoarding, clutter, or difficulty letting go, approaching therapy with compassion, patience, and nonjudgment. I understand that hoarding behaviors are often tied to emotional, relational, or trauma-related experiences, and I help clients explore underlying patterns while developing practical strategies for change.
I integrate trauma-informed, cognitive-behavioral, and parts-based approaches, as well as mindfulness and nervous system regulation techniques, to support emotional awareness, decision-making, and sustainable habit change. Therapy focuses on creating safety, reducing overwhelm, and helping clients build a sense of control, self-trust, and balance in their living environment.

Hoarding
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We work through the emotions, beliefs and root cause memory that causes the hoarding. Often it's a conditioned response from family/environment/ancestors. We use hypnotic programming to clear, rewire and move forward so that our inner mental/emotional states as well as outside environments are clear and clutter-free. I empower you to make new choices, to let go of the (unneccessary) emotional attachment and stories that hold you back, and have you tethered to objects and material you don't need or even really want. Once you remove these emotional blocks and bottlenecks, you will be free to move forward in life, with newly discovered clarity and insights on what is truly important in life.

Hoarding
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in hoarding disorder, my treatment approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to the individual's unique needs. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP), I work with clients to explore the underlying beliefs, emotions, and behaviors driving hoarding tendencies. By gently challenging distorted beliefs about possessions and facilitating gradual exposure to discarding items, we develop coping skills to manage urges and reduce clutter. Additionally, I emphasize skills training in organization, decision-making, and emotional regulation to support long-term maintenance of progress. Collaborating with clients, I create a safe and non-judgmental environment to foster insight, motivation, and sustainable change. My goal is to empower individuals to reclaim control over their living spaces, improve quality of life, and cultivate healthier relationships with their possessions.
