Denial and resistance show up at every stage of the dementia journey. They can delay a first evaluation or a diagnosis, stall decisions about help at home, divide siblings, and resurface around hospice and end-of-life care.
Sometimes the person living with dementia is resisting. Just as often it’s the family, sometimes in the name of what they believe their loved one wants. In this session, we’ll reframe denial as a normal, understandable response to fear, loss, and stigma rather than a failure. You’ll leave with concrete strategies: conversation approaches that feel like partnership instead of a power struggle, ways to get a reluctant family on the same page, how to introduce support gradually, and when it’s time to move forward even without full agreement
