Dementia Counselling in Ashby-de-la-Zouch
I began my professional journey in a legal background, but my personal life experiences have truly shaped my understanding of people and the world around us. These experiences have deepened my empathy and helped me appreciate just how much we can carry beneath the surface, often silently. I retrained as a counsellor so I can reach people who need support, and help them so they’re not alone. My role is to walk alongside you as you explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, helping you to better understand yourself and your environment, whether that’s in your personal life or at work.

My ideal client may seem to cope on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure inside. I’m especially passionate about supporting young people navigating identity, self-esteem, relationships, and life pressures. I also work with adults who feel stuck in patterns or disconnected from themselves. As an integrative therapist with a person-centred foundation, I tailor therapy to you while keeping our relationship at the heart of the work. I’m relaxed and down-to-earth — I can laugh with you when things feel light and sit beside you when they feel heavy.

My ideal client often appears to be coping well on the outside, but inside they’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained. They may struggle with people-pleasing, low self-worth, or relationship patterns that leave them feeling unheard or unfulfilled. They want to feel more in control, more connected to themselves, and more confident in how they show up in the world. They’re looking for a space to be truly seen and supported, a space to explore what’s no longer working and begin creating healthier, more fulfilling ways of being.

Dementia Counsellors
Can dementia patients benefit from counselling?
Dementia patients can often benefit significantly from counselling. While neurologists typically treat dementia itself, counsellors provide crucial emotional support for patients and their families. Therapists specializing in dementia can help clients navigate aging, end-of-life issues, social isolation, sleep challenges, and grief. They can also assist clients in adapting to the disease by addressing caregiving concerns and supporting family members. Counsellors will often also collaborate with a patient's neurologist or other medical providers to manage dementia symptoms and medication needs.
How can you tell if someone has dementia or Alzheimer's?
To determine if someone has dementia or Alzheimer's disease, there are several signs and diagnostic methods that medical professionals use. Early signs of dementia often include memory loss, difficulty with problem-solving, and challenges in completing familiar tasks. Diagnosing dementia or Alzheimer's requires a comprehensive approach, as there is no single definitive test, and initial diagnosis can sometimes be difficult as symptoms tend to worsen progressively over time. To make a diagnosis, medical professionals typically use a combination of methods, including standardized questionnaires and cognitive tests to assess memory, attention, and problem-solving skills, psychiatric evaluations to understand mental health status, brain scans to look for physical changes in the brain, as well as other medical tests to rule out other conditions.
What are the first-line treatment options for Alzheimer’s disease?
There is no cure for Alzheimer's disease, but catching the disease in its early-to-moderate phases can be beneficial in order to initiate first-line treatments to help manage symptoms. Medications such as galantamine, rivastigmine, and donepezil are examples of cholinesterase inhibitors that are commonly prescribed for Alzheimer’s disease. In addition, working with a therapist or social worker can also often help patients with the disease address common behavioural and lifestyle concerns, such as anxiety, depression, irritability, sleep problems, social support, and housing changes.
When to seek treatment for Alzheimer’s?
It’s best to seek treatment at the first signs of Alzheimer's. Early warning signs of Alzheimer’s include memory problems, such as forgetting appointments or directions, as well as trouble concentrating, paying attention, retrieving words, and carrying out daily household tasks. An early diagnosis can help people slow the progression of the disease with medication and plan for the future in terms of housing, social/caregiving support, and finances.
