Matt Paxton, of Hoarders fame, details more of the dirty secrets of the psychological condition and his team who tries to bring order to chaos.
Throughout the book Paxton assures us repeatedly he is not a therapist, he just works with them. His stories are really compassionate, it would be easy to ridicule and focus on the terrible conditions hoarders and their families live in.
