Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Hoarding is often talked about in ways that are shaming, dismissive, or overly simplistic—reduced to “just clutter” or a lack of discipline. But for many people, it’s about far more than that. It’s about attachment, safety, loss, scarcity, and the meaning objects hold over time. What looks excessive to others can feel necessary, grounding, or even protective to you. And when people respond with judgment or pressure to “just get rid of things,” it often makes the cycle worse, not better.
Cultural and generational experiences matter here too. For some, holding onto items is connected to histories of scarcity, migration, financial instability, or family expectations around saving and preserving. These patterns don’t come out of nowhere—and they don’t shift through shame.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t come in trying to clear your space—we work to understand it. We help you make sense of what you’re holding onto and why, and we move at a pace that respects both your emotional connection and your readiness for change. From there, we actively build ways to reduce overwhelm, increase decision-making capacity, and create systems that feel realistic for your life—not performative or short-lived. This includes addressing the deeper layers—grief, anxiety, trauma, and scarcity—that often drive these patterns. This work is about helping you create a space that supports you, without forcing you to abandon what’s felt like safety along the way.

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.

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.
