Dementia is complicated. Understanding it shouldn’t have to be.
Caring for someone with dementia can leave families confused by behaviors they never expected and professionals searching for better ways to help.
Dr. Natali Edmonds brings together more than a decade of clinical experience in geropsychology with years of teaching millions of caregivers online.
Her strength is making complicated dementia concepts understandable.
Audiences don’t just learn what happens in dementia. They begin to understand why it’s happening, what may be making a difficult situation harder, and what they can try instead.
Dr. Natali’s presentations are practical, evidence-informed, and designed to leave people with ideas they can use long after the event ends.
