The Person You Love IS Still in There

Art can help you reach them.

When dementia enters your life—whether through a diagnosis or a loved one—it can feel like everything is shifting. Words fade. Routines unravel. That familiar spark begins to dim.

But It Isn’t Gone.

Art therapy offers a new way to connect, to feel, and to be seen—even when words no longer work.

Why It Works..

Art therapy isn’t about making perfect pictures

It’s about creating access—

Access to calm, to connection, and to the person still very much present.

With over 12 years of experience working with Alzheimer’s, Lewy Body, Parkinson’s, and other cognitive disorders, I’ve seen how something as simple as a paintbrush can open a door words no longer can.
