Books
My books are written for people who want to understand dementia behaviors more clearly — without blame, jargon, or unrealistic expectations.
They’re designed to be read at your own pace and returned to as understanding evolves
Understanding behavior doesn’t require perfection. It requires curiosity, compassion, and the willingness to pause before reacting.
Understanding Dementia Related Behaviors
Discover a steadier way to navigate dementia caregiving, without guilt, fear, or confusion.
Many dementia caregiving books focus on what to fix, stop, or manage. But in the middle of a stressful moment, when agitation escalates, sundowning sets in, or help with dressing or bathing is met with resistance, those clinical strategies often fall short. Instead of clarity, you’re left second-guessing yourself and wondering what you did wrong.
This book exists to tell you that you are not failing.
Moments That Matter
Rediscover the Joy of Connection: A Gentle, Sensory Approach to Engaging with Loved Ones Living with Dementia.
How do you reach someone when the words begin to fade?
When a loved one is living with dementia or Alzheimer’s, traditional conversation can often feel like a hurdle. We find ourselves asking “Do you remember?” only to be met with frustration. But while factual memory may decline, emotional memory and sensory connection remain remarkably strong.
Moments That Matter is a collection of twelve immersive sensory stories designed to bypass the pressure of “facts” and tap directly into the heart. Through the evocative smells of a country fair, the rhythmic sound of a train on the tracks, and the warm feel of a sun-drenched beach, these stories create a bridge to shared presence, comfort, and joy.
