How I Can Support You

Every family’s situation is different. One thing stays the same: dementia doesn’t come with a manual.My work is designed to bring clarity, calm, and practical guidance — whether you need support from a distance, hands-on help at home, or simple tools you can use straight away.

Below are the three ways I support families living with dementia.

Online Coaching for Families

If something at home feels “off”, confusing, or emotionally heavy, online coaching offers clarity without you having to leave the house.

Many families come to me when they’re unsure whether what they’re seeing is normal ageing, early dementia, or something in between.

During coaching sessions, we:

  • Explore what you’re noticing at home
  • Make sense of behaviours with compassion
  • Reduce unnecessary stress and conflict
  • Improve communication with your loved one
  • Create a calm, practical plan that supports everyone involved


Sessions are private, steady, and shaped around your family’s real life — not a generic checklist.

In-Person Respite Care (Live-In)

Caring for someone with dementia day after day is demanding. Exhaustion often builds quietly — until suddenly it’s too much.

My short-term, live-in respite support allows caregivers to rest, reset, or step away briefly, knowing their loved one is in capable, understanding hands.

I step into the home for a few days or longer, depending on need.

During respite support, I focus on:

Maintaining routines and familiarity

Reducing anxiety and agitation

Keeping the household calm and predictable

Supporting dignity and independence

Looking after the emotional wellbeing of everyone involved

This is not standard live-in care.
It is specialised dementia support, rooted in ongoing hands-on experience and emotional intelligence.

Digital Tools & Practical Resources

Not everyone needs coaching straight away. Sometimes you just need clear, practical guidance you can refer to in the moment.

I create simple, human-friendly resources to help families make sense of the early and confusing stages of dementia.

These include:

  • Observation and behaviour checklists
  • Communication guidance
  • Early signs and awareness tools
  • Quick-reference “what to do when…” pages

They are designed for real homes, real families, and real life — not medical textbooks.

(New resources are added regularly.)

  If you’re unsure which type of support fits your situation, start with a conversation. We’ll work out the next step calmly, privately, and without pressure.
