Rooted in Care Consulting
Dementia Consulting, Coaching, Education & Training
Care grounded in partnering with the person living with brain change, not doing to or for them.
I support families, communities, care teams, and individuals living with brain change across a wide range of experiences—from early changes in cognition and communication to more advanced support needs—in understanding what words, behavior, and interaction are communicating in each moment, and responding in ways that preserve dignity, honor consent, and strengthen connection.
Grounded in Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care® (PAC™), this work centers relationship, communication, and moment-to-moment collaboration in care.
Brain change does not remove personhood. It changes how we must listen, interpret, and respond.
When I Can Help You
I’m here for you when:
Daily care feels tense, stressful, or unpredictable
Communication feels more like conflict than connection
You’re trying to understand what someone is expressing through words, behavior, or resistance
You want support shifting from task-driven care to relationship-centered moments
You want practical guidance on how to pause, notice, and respond in ways that reduce distress and build trust
