NOTICE: Please click here for information about Streamlined by Steven's response to COVID-19 (coronavirus), including free remote services for those impacted by the virus!
Streamlined by Steven is a professional organizing company operating in Washington, D.C. and Maryland.

Welcome! I'm Steven Cohen, a former business consultant with a Master's degree in social work. I'm Streamlined by Steven's principal organizer. 

Picking a personal organizer can feel overwhelming. Why choose me? 


  • Acceptance: I value you, as you are. I work with your existing preferences, supporting how you want to live.
  • Customization: I value each client’s individuality and will work with you to find personalized solutions.
  • Affordability: I deliberately price at the low end of DC-area rates, and offer sliding scale discounts in cases of financial need. I believe in making the benefits of organization widely available!​ ​
  • Partnership: I view our work together as fundamentally collaborative. You are the expert on you: your goals, experiences, and what's worked for you in the past.

You can find out more about me and my work on the Frequently Asked Questions page.

I help you (or your child, or parent) enjoy life more, by maximizing your:
  • Time: find what's needed quickly and easily
  • Space: showcase special items
  • Energy: make a space relaxing and restorative
  • Money: avoid the costs of rental storage, or re-purchasing misplaced items​
Life really is better when it's streamlined!

My services help your life run smoothly. I can:
  • Organize your home or office
  • Help your child or parent become more organized
  • Improve how your technology runs, including phones and email
  • Design systems for paperwork, bills, homework, and schedules
  • Structure projects, like graduate theses and job searches
  • Teach you skills for staying organized

Clear pricing, honest value

I charge one hourly rate: $80 per hour. If you cancel with less than 48 hours notice, I charge for two hours worth of work ($160). 

Per this Washington Post article about hiring professional organizers, you can "expect to pay between $80-$140 per hour." I deliberately price at the low end of that range, because I believe in my services and want them to be accessible. If finances are an concern, please contact me for information on sliding scales.

You set the pace: we can proceed at whatever speed is comfortable for you. A space can be radically transformed in an hour--or we can take longer, especially for emotionally evocative items.
​
I have NO hidden fees:
​
  • No minimum number of sessions: I don't require you to commit to four or eight or 20 sessions. If you want one session, I can do one session!
  • No mystery price quotes: I don't issue a "project quote" that might run over on time or cost. I charge based on hours booked.
  • No consult fee: I offer a free phone consult and a free in-person consult at the site you'd like to organize!
  • No transport fee: I don't charge for time in transit or mileage to your site.
  • No kickbacks: I don't suggest particular products to get commission fees. I don’t try to sign you up for a specific closet design, rental storage, or other business. I have no incentive to get you to go shopping, and I put your needs first.
  • No caginess around pricing: I don't delay offering a price until after I've seen your space, or charge more based on how much it seems you can pay.​
