About this book
Develop the skills to master the rip current of emotions inherent in caring for a loved one with dementia.
Caregivers know the stress and emotional turmoil of caring for loved ones with dementia. What if you could manage that stress while strengthening your caregiving relationships? A Caregiver's Well-Being teaches you how to thrive, not just survive, by blending proven psychological coping principles, practical dementia caregiving skills, and the authors' personal experiences of caring for a loved one living with dementia.
Drawing from the fields of biology, psychology, and stress management, Thomas and Donna Finn provide concrete tools to prepare for and manage stress while discovering deeper meaning in caregiving. Addressing common feelings like anxiety, sadness, guilt, and frustration, these tools will help you navigate the stress of caring while keeping sight of your loved one's dignity as a person.
Whether you have been in a care partner role for years or are new to the emotional challenges of caring for someone with dementia, A Caregiver's Well-Being will help you build the skills necessary for mastering the journey of caregiving.
