You’re noticing changes and wondering what to do next.
Hi, my name is Colleen Nolan and I’m a dementia educator and trainer.
If you’re noticing changes in your own memory, thinking, or communication, I offer in-person and virtual visits where you can talk openly about what it’s been like and explore what might help, at your pace.
I also help care partners understand what’s happening and discover new ways to approach difficult moments so interactions feel more manageable and connected.
I’m noticing changes in myself
Talk with someone who understands what it’s like to navigate changes in memory, thinking, or communication.
I’m supporting someone I care about
Get help making sense of what’s happening and finding ways to respond that fit the person you care about.
For Professionals & Organizations
I offer dementia training, consultation, and coaching to help teams better understand brain change and respond to difficult moments in everyday care.
You might reach out when:
You’re noticing changes in your own memory, thinking, or communication and want someone you can talk openly with about what it’s been like.
You’re figuring out how to ask for help or stay involved in things that matter to you as daily life changes.
You’re seeing changes in someone you care about and aren’t sure how to respond to what they’re saying or experiencing.
Everyday care is becoming more difficult, or conversations with someone you care about keep turning into conflict.
Your team is using different approaches and would like practical dementia training or guidance for situations that keep coming up.
You don’t need to know exactly what kind of support you need. Tell me what you’ve been noticing or what’s been on your mind. We’ll start there.
Not sure what you need? Start here.
Tell me a little about what's happening. I'll help you determine whether Rooted in Care is the right kind of support and what the next step might be.
