Counselling Support

Dementia Support

Support for those living with early-stage dementia, and for the family carrying them through it.

A Space for the Whole Family's Grief

A dementia diagnosis changes things for everyone involved. If you are living with an early diagnosis yourself, or supporting a parent, partner, or loved one, the emotional experience can be complicated—grief for what's being lost, fear about what's ahead, guilt, exhaustion, and love, often all tangled together.

What Might Bring You Here

  • Processing your own early-stage dementia diagnosis
  • Caring for a partner, parent, or relative with dementia
  • "Anticipatory grief"—mourning someone who is still here
  • Exhaustion, guilt, or resentment as a carer
  • Difficult family dynamics around caregiving decisions
  • Adjusting to a changed relationship with someone you love

How We Work Together

This is a space to be honest about the parts of this experience that are rarely spoken aloud—the guilt of feeling relieved by a moment's respite, the grief that arrives before a loss has technically happened, the anger that sits alongside love. Whatever you're feeling, there is room for it here.

01 Carrying It Together

You Don't Have to Carry This Alone

Caring for someone, or coming to terms with your own diagnosis, can be one of the loneliest experiences—even surrounded by family. This is a space to put the weight down for an hour, and simply be supported yourself.
