When dementia changes what life looks like, you do not have to figure out every decision alone. Dawn provides individualized guidance to help families understand what is happening, identify what matters now, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Dementia can bring changes in communication, behavior, safety, family dynamics and care needs, often all at once. Dawn helps families step out of the overwhelm, understand what may be happening and identify practical next steps that honor both the person living with dementia and the people who love them.
The goal is not to hand you a generic list of answers. It is to help you understand your situation more clearly, identify what matters most right now and make informed decisions that fit your family.
Before your session, complete a brief confidential intake so Dawn understands your current concerns, living situation, family dynamics and the decisions you are facing.
Together, you’ll separate immediate priorities from issues that can be addressed over time and make sense of the changes your family is experiencing.
Explore communication approaches, safety concerns, care decisions, healthcare questions and practical strategies specific to your situation.
Depending on your service, you may leave with recommendations, curated resources, a personalized Dementia Navigation Roadmap and continued coaching support.
Every family’s situation is different. A complimentary Discovery Call can help you determine which level of support makes the most sense.
Not sure where to begin? Briefly share what is happening, learn how dementia coaching may help, and determine which level of support is the best fit for your family.
For families with one specific concern, question or decision who need focused professional guidance without a comprehensive consultation.
Great for: communication challenges, behavioral changes, safety concerns, preparing for a physician appointment or a specific care decision.
For families who need a broader understanding of what is happening, answers to important questions, and greater clarity around what to do next.
Great for: families following a diagnosis, concerned about cognitive changes, experiencing new challenges, or simply unsure what to do next.
For families who need more than one conversation and want an individualized plan for navigating the next phase of the dementia journey.
Guidance may address communication, safety, behavioral changes, family dynamics, living arrangements, caregiver support and Memory Care considerations.
For families navigating more complex circumstances who want continued professional guidance as needs, decisions and challenges evolve.
Personalized in-person consultation may be available for families within Dawn’s local service area when face-to-face guidance is preferred or appropriate.

Dementia can bring a lot of questions, especially when you’re trying to make the right decisions for someone you love. These answers can help you understand how Dawn works, what to expect and which type of support may be the best fit for your family.
No. Families often reach out because they are noticing changes in memory, behavior, communication or daily functioning and are unsure what those changes mean or what to do next. Dawn can help you organize your concerns, identify priorities and prepare for conversations with appropriate healthcare professionals.
If you are unsure, start with the complimentary Discovery Call. A focused 30-minute session works well for one specific concern or decision, while the 60-minute consultation is better when several issues need to be discussed. Families needing a written roadmap or continued support may benefit from one of Dawn’s navigation packages.
Yes. When helpful, spouses, adult children, siblings or other involved family members can participate. Having key decision-makers together can be especially useful when a family is trying to understand changing needs, work through disagreements or make care decisions.
Families may bring questions about communication, behavioral changes, safety, driving, living alone, caregiver stress, healthcare appointments, family disagreements, changing care needs, assisted living, Memory Care and preparing for transitions. The conversation is tailored to what your family is facing now.
Dawn begins by understanding what has been changing, what concerns you most and what decisions may be approaching. Together, you will identify immediate priorities, talk through practical options and determine next steps that make sense for your loved one and family.
The roadmap is an individualized guide developed around your family’s situation. Depending on your needs, it may address priorities such as communication, safety, care planning, family roles, healthcare questions, living arrangements, caregiver support and future decisions.
Yes. Dawn works with families virtually, making coaching and dementia navigation accessible regardless of where you live. Limited local in-person consultation may also be available when appropriate.
Dawn can help your family understand the factors to consider, identify questions to ask and think through available care options. She can provide education and guidance around the decision, but the final choice remains with the family and appropriate healthcare professionals.
That is common in dementia care. Families who need continued guidance can schedule additional coaching or choose a navigation package that provides follow-up sessions and ongoing support as needs and decisions evolve.
