Empower Yourself. Advocate Confidently. Tried and True Caregiving Solutions.
Have you ever felt overwhelmed and scared as a caregiver? When my husband was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2004, I felt lost—unsure of what to do or where to turn. Every doctor’s appointment and decision felt like a mountain to climb.
If you know that feeling, you’re not alone. Caregiving is one of the most important roles you’ll ever take on, yet no one teaches us how to do it effectively. Most of us learn on the job, leading to mistakes that can affect both you and the person you’re caring for.
That’s why I created Patient Advocate Training for Caregivers
—to share the skills, tools, and strategies I’ve learned over the years. This 6-month online training will give you the confidence to navigate the complexities of caregiving and healthcare advocacy.

for loved ones

Board Certified Patient Advocate (BCPA)
Parkinson's Disease Expert, Patient Advocate, Caregiver Coach, Author, Trainer & Speaker
In 2018, I became one of the first 149 individuals in the U.S. to earn the Board Certified Patient Advocate (BCPA) national designation. Even before the certification, I was my husband's patient advocate in training, and I advocated for and educated hundreds of people with Parkinson's and their family caregivers. Since my certification, I’ve consulted as a Patient Advocate consultant and provided specialized guidance and education to many individuals and caregivers to work toward the best quality of life and healthcare outcomes as possible while they go through complex healthcare journeys. Now, I want to share my expertise with you to help you feel more confident and capable in your caregiving role.
