Decorator / designer for a flat

My DH and I are splitting up and I need to move into a 1 bedroom flat with my toddler. The flat is big-ish for a 1 bed but a very awkward layout. I need someone to come up with a design and source everything as I don't have the skill or time. Where do I get someone like this?

My head is spinning from this impending breakup so forgive my ignorance. I know rich people have people desig their houses but i need something more basic than that. I have so much on my plate right now, I can't think. And I can't talk to people in real life as they don't know yet.

Flat is in London, zone 3.

My friend was bereaved and moved into a 1 bed flat. She turned the bedroom into her bedroom, large double bed, small sofa, smallish round table in the corner, large TV wall mounted, an inbuilt storage cupboard, floor to ceiling book shelves. The bedroom had a single bed and IKEA wardrobe and book shelves. I suppose styled on a hotel room, but it's really lovely. DC plays a lot all over the floor in the main room.

Storage is the main issue; there's storage in the garden area and an outdoor play room with art cupboard where guests can also stay, but she (IMO) has a lot of unnecessary stuff!

I haven't really answered your question, sorry, but hopefully food for thought!
