Overcoming hoarding, a mental disorder recognized by the

American Psychiatric Association, requires more than pop

psychology and a 30-gallon garbage bag. In the new book

Conquer the Clutter, social worker Elaine Birchall, founder of

the Canadian National Hoarding Coalition, and co-author

Suzanne Cronkwright, provide practical strategies for regaining

control.
