About the Book

"Overcome Hoarding and Transform Your Life: How to Choose Life and Hope Instead of Things" by Gloria Valoris is a 228-page workbook that helps people who excessively acquire and keep more than they can ever use to break free from hoarding. Instead of depending upon things for emotional support, readers are aided to find a healthier life filled with real experiences, opportunities, and relationships. "Overcome Hoarding" provides insights, exercises, and many tools to transform the thoughts that keep people stuck in hoarding and the emotions that fuel the vicious cycle of acquiring and keeping. Tested approaches guide and support clearing out and organizing. The book helps readers become free from the pain of hoarding, prevent relapses, and repair the damage that hoarding does to all aspects of life. An entire chapter helps to prevent the many crises common in hoarding, such as eviction or child removal. Twenty-five exercises and many response sections help readers understand their specific hoarding issues, identify beneficial strategies, and develop constructive new habits, behaviors, and thoughts to build happiness and health. "Overcome Hoarding" emphasizes self-care as a primary tool of recovery and support for becoming emotionally, physically, mentally, and financially healthy. "Overcome Hoarding" chapters include: 1 - What's Going On - Describing Hoarding 2 - Preventing Hoarding-Related Crises 3 - Understanding Change and Thoughts 4 - Emotional Health and Healing 5 - Transforming Thoughts That Perpetuate Hoarding 6 - Transforming States That Perpetuate Hoarding 7 - Getting Ready to Transform Your Space 8 - Transforming Your Space 9 - Keeping Your Gains For parents who hoard there are sections on understanding the effects of hoarding on children and on preventing hoarding in the next generation. This book grew out of almost 50 years of experience with hundreds of people who hoard, five years of teaching well-reviewed and effective community college classes on overcoming hoarding, and monthly meetings with students. "Inspirational guidance for preventing crises and recovering from hoarding, and for building a happy, healthy life without hoarding" Reader comment
About the Author: Author Gloria Valoris has over fifty years experience working with hundreds of clients, relatives, neighbors, tenants, students, and friends who hoard. She started the first San Francisco Taskforce on Hoarding in 1986 while serving as the Director of Counseling and Placement for Independent Housing Services. Managing elderly housing buildings that had multiple tenants who were hoarding provided insight and experience from other perspectives. Her degrees in Psychology and Counseling provide clinical insight into hoarding, while her experiences with numerous body awareness and tension-reducing methods provide understanding of the physical roots of change. She taught the very well rated "Overcome Hoarding and Transform Your Life" 10-week workshop for City College of San Francisco for five years, provided a monthly follow-up meeting for students for three years, and offers a newsletter and other resources to support students.
