  Sara is a behaviour support practitioner specialising in dementia, working with adults and older people across a range of cognitive, sensory, and neurodevelopmental profiles. She provides tailored, person‑centred support for individuals living with dementia, including young‑onset dementia, and works closely with families, carers, and services to enhance quality of life, autonomy, and emotional wellbeing.

Her practice is grounded in neuro‑affirming, trauma‑informed principles that recognise the person’s identity, history, strengths, and preferred ways of navigating the world. Sara prioritises dignity, autonomy, and meaningful engagement, ensuring supports are respectful, collaborative, and aligned with the person’s lived experience.

Before specialising in dementia, Sara worked extensively with children and adolescents, supporting sensory processing needs, interoception development, polyvagal‑informed regulation, and co‑regulation. She has undertaken extensive training in polyvagal theory and draws on evidence‑based frameworks such as Ross Greene’s Collaborative and Proactive Solutions model.
