If you only saw Katrina Thompson's living room and dining room, you would think her house was very neat and organized. Go deeper into her home, however, and you will find her secret shame.

"It's so cluttered that it just makes me sick to go up there," she said on The Oprah Winfrey Show. "I feel like it's a cloud; it's gloomy; it's unbearable. I'm ashamed of myself for letting a room get to that point because I have not faced the challenges that that room is going to bring me."

Watch as professional organizer Julie Morgenstern finds the emotional issues lurking behind Katrina's mess and helps her get that room clean once and for all.
