Katcher Guidance offers practical yet compassionate one-on-one support for downsizing, task management, and life transitions. Whether it's decluttering, sorting, packing, staging, logistics, or handling the emotional weight of change, we're here to make the process easier.

Founded as a true family project, Cheryl leads with care and clarity, while her husband Dave steps in with an extra set of hands whenever needed. Her son Lucas, a skilled carpenter, is also available for small home fixes to help everything come together smoothly. Their youngest son keeps the heart of the team light, offering up joyful life lessons and laughter along the way. Not to mention, their wide network of trusted community connections helps bring the whole picture together.


About Katcher Guidance

At Katcher Guidance, my mission is to provide grounded, individualized care that helps seniors and family members move through downsizing with care, calm and understanding. Whether the shift is emotional, logistical, or a little of both, I am here to make the process more manageable and even meaningful.

My journey into downsizing and transitional support began more than 25 years ago when my then-husband lost both his parents six months apart. Sorting through their home in the midst of grief was overwhelming, but taught me just how emotional and essential this process can be.

Since then, I have walked alongside clients, family and friends through similar transitions. I have personally supporting my current mother-in-law through downsizing, caregiving and loss; stood by my mom while caring for my dad through dementia and end-of-life; and gently guiding my best friend Katie, the "Kat" in Katcher, through a heartbreaking yet courageous journey with Early Onset Alzheimer's. Professionally, over the last five years, I have guided many seniors and families in Powell River through downsizing and life transitions.

Each experience deepened my understanding of the emotional weight behind every move, every box, every change. It's why Katcher Guidance exists: to offer compassionate, practical, and personal support when life is shifting in big, often tender ways.

I am so happy you’re here and considering guidance. 

With Gratitude,
Cheryl
