BIf you're caring for someone living with dementia, you don't need more judgment, confusion, or overwhelming advice—you need practical support, education, and strategies that help you feel confident and capable.

As a PAC-Certified Dementia Educator/Licensed (PAC-CDE/L) and owner of CEDAR Dementia Consulting, Buffy Briggs helps families, caregivers, senior living communities, home care agencies, and healthcare professionals better understand dementia and create more positive, meaningful interactions with those they support.

Drawing from both her professional experience as a PAC-CDE/L, dementia navigator, educator, and consultant, as well as her personal experience as a family caregiver, Buffy understands the challenges you face every day. Whether you're navigating a new diagnosis, struggling with communication and behavioral changes, supporting a care team, or trying to reduce caregiver stress and burnout, she provides guidance that is compassionate, practical, and immediately applicable.

At CEDAR Dementia Consulting—Connecting through Engagement, Dignity, Approach & Respect—the focus is on helping you understand the "why" behind dementia-related changes, improve care outcomes, and foster stronger relationships. Using principles from Positive Approach to Care®, developed by Teepa Snow, Buffy teaches proven techniques that help caregivers and care professionals reduce distress, increase engagement, and support the abilities that remain.

Through personalized consultations, staff education, caregiver coaching, workshops, and presentations, Buffy empowers you with the knowledge and skills needed to create calmer moments, stronger connections, and more dignified care experiences.

Because when you understand what is changing, you can focus less on frustration and more on connection, dignity, and meaningful engagement.
