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.
