I am ... Still here!!
I am ... Still here!!
A dementia diagnosis alters lives drastically.
Carepartners find themselves in a whirlwind asking what just happened; yet, they seek how to navigate best the reality before them and family. Working together is critical.
Persons with the diagnosis are stunned as well as their expectations of the future become filled with questions and limitations. They need to be heard; their values need to be honored.
My goal is to partner with YOU!!
Honoring and teaching carepartners and professional caregivers to be completely present for those living with dementia is my passion and my goal. The carepartners and persons with diagnosis often feel isolated and alone on this journey. There is help for you and your loved one. Together -- we can seek the right pieces of this new puzzle in life that dementia brings.




Carepartners, family and friends
Living with dementia impacts the entire family unit. Please reach out to your local Alzheimer's Association . You will find resources in your community that will be very helpful as this disease progresses.
As you reflect on and consider the challenges ahead, you may consider adding additional professionals to your care team. Specializing in dementia related issues, I'm here to listen and guide. Please let me know if you have questions, concerns and challenges. You are not alone! Finding the right balance for you is very important! Dealing with this disease is a very careful balancing act!
Persons with dementia
Your life is turned upside down and you're striving to find a new path. You deserve support and the cultivation of your peer networks. Often, this is an early stage support group that you may find with your local Alzheimer's Association. These groups help you connect with peers and validate the many feelings you experience. Continued interaction and social connections are invaluable! If not a support group, look for social engagement opportunities -- especially if it involves music!! You can help piece the puzzle together!
