I know Sonya in the capacity of a business coach and mentor, and she is wonderful! I admire her knowledge, her patience, her compassion, and her authenticity. I have learned so much about not only being a professional organizer, but also about life! She is confident, yet kind, and I always look forward to our sessions together. I highly recommend Sonya for any personal goals or project you have! read more

Sonya from spaceWise has helped me organize my life in multiple sessions over the past year. I really think she's part organizer, part psychologist--not only helping me physically organize but gain the mental fortitude to let go and keep order. Well, I don't think she has a degree in psychology, but she does get inside your head. We started with the paper: what to keep, what should go, stopping incoming (paperless, no catalogs) and systems for maintaining organization. Then we went to closets: purging clothes and shoes, finding specific homes for things vs. random collections. As paper and 'things' left my house (in trash bags and destined for good will), I felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders. Out with the sentimentality. In with the practicality. She helped me think differently about how I was using my closets and rooms, making things much more functional and oriented to my needs. She helped me to design my dream closet and provided references for people who could get the work done. She helped me clean out an underused loft space so that it is now a clutter free home office. Why she is fabulous: She rolls up her sleeves and gets to work. She makes something that feels so daunting a relatively easy and even enjoyable job. She's very efficient and keeps you on task--not a moment wasted when she's here. She works hard to match her organizing solutions to your needs and proclivities. She's encouraging and doesn't let you beat yourself up too much about your cluttered ways. She is always on time and promptly follows up on things she says she's going to do. She's got a wealth of knowledge and experience that she shares along the way (like if I just bought those skinny coat hangers I could fit a lot more in my closet to feng-shui ideas for orienting the bedroom furniture). She's just great to work with! I will continue to bring in Sonya for future organization extravaganzas. We are not yet done with me. I recommend her highly for anyone needing to declutter, space plan and systemize and your dwelling and your life. read more

My experience with Sonya was better than I could have imagined. She is professional, yet very personable, and easy to work with. For my project, she consulted with me before the contractor came out to give us a bid on a remodeling project. Our just over 1000 square feet of South Austin charm needed some improvements. Sonya helped me find more opportunities for creating space and also implement organizing plans into the remodel. Specifically, she showed us how we could open up the bedroom closet, add a wall insert into the bathroom between studs, and help rethink ways to use one specific room. We have two children but really needed an adult-only creative space, as I sew and my husband writes. She helped us maximize the storage and usability of our newly minted Creative Room. On top of all this, she helped me rethink how to organize my kitchen for the best use of the limited space I have. After implementing all of her ideas, our house feels better, and we function better as a family. I highly recommend SpaceWise for any small or large project you have. read more

It was a big decision to put my house on the market. I had just lost my mother and great uncle and had to purge their homes and put their homes on the market. The idea of going through it again, and with my own home, was overwhelming. It was not just a house, it was our home, a home we built. Our personal belongings weren't just "things" we had accrued, each item held meaning. I knew I'd need help. I'd need someone who not only had organizing skills, but who was also able to observe the nuances in my personal process and support me when I was overwhelmed. I reached out to Sonya because there was something that seemed very grounding about her, and I knew that's what I needed. She is my super hero. She helped me go through every item in my 3200 square foot home (with full attic!) Sonya was thoughtful when I was uncertain and helped me unravel my feelings about sentimental pieces and whether or not to keep them, and also provided the just right amount of "push" and encouragement when needed. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Moving out and going through your family's heirlooms, children's keepsakes and personal belongings is one thing, but preparing to downsize is another. If you're about to move into a new location Sonya is amazing at space planning your new home. I honestly don't know how we did it, but everything we brought with us fits in a home more than half the size. There's a place for everything! read more

Sonya is magic! Talk about amazing transformations, she turned our playroom around in a day. I appreciate her input because she's always thinking ahead, anticipating potential issues we may have with certain systems and implementing solutions in advance. So incredibly helpful!!! I want her special touch in every nook and cranny of our house, love her!!! read more

In just a few sessions, Sonya helped me to organize my office space and filing systems, clear out years of accumulated paperwork, and tidy my storage closet to make it a much more sane and user-friendly space. I appreciate Sonya's understanding of mindfulness and feng-shui principles. She's a wonderful organizational coach, and I would recommend her services to anyone looking to clear, organize, and make the most of their living and working spaces! read more

In short - wow! Sonya has been an amazing resource to me over the last year. She has helped me to improve my daily life in ways both practical and personal. This is not just about cleaning out closets and organizing the junk drawer. Sonya takes a holistic view of how our organization (or lack of it!) can impact our lives. The appearance of my home is more peaceful and I get more done in less time since I have been working with Sonya. I started with a 2-hour session that really opened my eyes to the inefficiencies and possibilities for organizing the things in our home. Since that time, I have been meeting with Sonya every month or so, and a check in call in between to keep on track. She follows up each appointment with a list of tasks that we discussed and also links to helpful items to shop. She also sends links to organizing tips and tricks. I love the structure of her engagement, as it allows me to do much of the work myself, but much more efficiently with her guidance and expertise. Also, the interim check in call keep me from putting things off. When we meet, we are ready to tackle a particular area -- and the best part is, that things get DONE! She has been a blessing to my life, plus she is a lot of fun to work with. She brings her experiences as a mother as well, which has helped me to organize my kids' rooms so that they can actually play with AND clean up their toys. I give her 5 starts without reservations. They best money I have spent in a long time. I believe that her charges are very fair and well worth it. read more

I enlisted Sonya Feher's help getting my house ready for a remodel. My goal was to plan the new storage space that would be created and change the workflow of the kitchen. After 23 years in the same house, there were many entrenched assumptions and patterns, and I knew I would need someone to cut through all the clutter (physical and mental.) Sonya has a very calm demeanor, professional and focussed. I found her very easy to talk to, and found her approach logical and easy to follow. She has a wealth of knowledge about incidental stuff that was very useful to know prior to the remodel-I didn't have to spend time agonizing over what to do with that "wasted" corner cabinet space, or how to solve little problems that you just live with because she had knowledge about new gadgets, apps or whatever to get me over that hump. The biggest thing she did was to suggest to me that I could get the Settlement Home folks to pick up furniture for their garage sale. This piece of advice came a week before the SH people stopped doing pick ups. I was able to gather book cases, a table, boxes of clothes and kitchen items, and an ancient CR TV that weighed a ton, and they were picked up and out of my house in a week's time. This was a huge thing and really got my reorg off to a flying start. I am still using the advice she gave me and I'm enjoying my remodel and my home so much because of her help. I highly recommend Sonya & Spacewise. read more

I chose Sonya on the basis of her website, and because I wanted to see the bio of the person I would be working with. I have a small and beautiful space that was heavy with the things inherited from family who had passed on. That was the first wave of decluttering. Just having a compassionate person to go thru those things was invaluable. As she said, "This is Heart work." Next we started going through different areas, organizing in new, smoother, and easier to remember ways, plus choosing and creating beautiful new pieces of furniture for that purpose. And bringing to the fore things that I love seeing every day. Every time she left with a Goodwill bin. Over about a year, this work has heightened the 'Joy Factor' of my living space immeasurably. She is good with little things and big; able to adapt to your style of processing decisions, quick to respond between sessions, and absolutely honest about pricing and billing. I recommend her whole heartedly. read more

Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Sonya! My son has a serious Lego habit and we have a whole room dedicated to his projects (and mess!). I'm a very, very organized person but I could not get this Lego room in order. I decided to contact Sonya to discuss our issue and I was wanting her to coach my 10 year old so he could learn how to maintain his collection after it was organized. She was a great listener and asked all the appropriate questions. Sonya was clear about expectations and pricing. Throughout the project she would check in to see how we were doing and if we wanted to continue (it was a much larger task than I had anticipated). Having her in our home for hours on end, I felt really comfortable and enjoyed her easy going/respectful presence! She has so much experience and wisdom regarding organization. My son spent hours working with Sonya and he really connected with her. She taught him how to think about organizing his Legos and then creating systems and guidelines to maintain order in the room. It's been a few months now and Legos are officially under control! Thank you SO much Sonya!! read more
