Say What??

We've become so conditioned to repeating clichés and phrases without really giving much thought to the meaning of what we're saying. You've probably heard or even uttered the phrase, "It's the least you/I could do". Have you ever given thought to what it means? Well, thankfully, I have. What someone is saying when speaking those words is basically this, "Although I want to help, I don't really want to give 100%, my full attention or a strong effort, so I'll give the minimum or do as little as possible". Really? I'm sure the motives are pure when those words are spoken, but if we pay more attention to the literal meaning of what we say, we may not say it. Just a thought.

About Me

My photo
Washington, DC, United States
I am Dr. Darnita L. Payden, Executive Director/Owner of Dr. DClutter™ Life Management, a division of PreciousOnes™ LLC. I have a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and over 20 years of experience working to help clients discover their strengths and talents. Having worked as a therapist, college professor, grief specialist and trainer, I have encountered in my journey many of the issues my clients may face. I have a sincere desire to help you find clarity, organization and independence in your life and environments. I know that life can be hectic, but I desire to help my clients bring as much order, peace and enjoyment back into their lives as is possible. What separates me from the norm? I focus on the client from a holistic perspective. I realize that most people desire a functional and an organized life, but may simply need support, understanding and information about why they have the habits or tendencies that have led to disorganization. I do not perform “quick fixes” or provide “one-size-fits-all” guidance, but I strive to provide strategies to my clients that will be life changing and useful for a lifetime. Dr. DClutter™ is a name well earned!!
