Hey there Careblazers! Welcome back to Careblazers TV, the place where we talk about everything dementia. If you are caring for a loved one with any type of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy Body Dementia, or vascular dementia, then this is the place for you!

This week’s video talks about something I’m sure many of you are familiar with- Caregiver stress. I share 4 ways that you can start managing your dementia caregiver stress right now. Tip #4 is my favorite. Although we cannot control the fact that your loved one has dementia, we can control your reaction, your perspective, and your behavior toward the situation. Caring for a loved one with dementia is stressful and it is important that you know AND utilize the things that can help reduce your stress.

I really want to make Careblazers as helpful as possible so let me know what you want to learn about or what your biggest struggles are and I will do my best to find a way to bring you information to help.

- Dr. Natali

In case you haven’t met me, my name is Natali Edmonds and I am a board certified geropsychologist. That means that I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with older adults. In my job, I help people with dementia, and their caregivers, by visiting them in their own homes and helping them cope through the many struggles of caring for someone with dementia. I have always wanted to help more people than is possible for me in a work day. One day, while hiking a trail, I came up with the idea for Careblazers and I decided to see if posting videos online could provide help to the many other Careblazers in the world who don’t get to have help come directly to them in their homes. I hope that this work helps you in some way on your caregiving journey.

Blaze on!
