“I believe dementia care is not only about remembering who someone was, but continuing to recognise, include and love the person who is still here.”
About Kaysha
I am Kaysha Ubrani, an Ageing & Dementia Researcher and Founder of Anchor Dementia Care.
My background brings together psychology, research, coaching and adult education, with a particular interest in the emotional and relational experiences of families navigating dementia.
I hold an MSc in Psychology (Distinction) from the University of Hertfordshire and have undertaken postgraduate training in Dementia Care at the University of St Andrews.
At the heart of my work is a question that continues to shape my thinking:
How do we preserve meaningful relationships when memory and communication begin to change?
My understanding of dementia care has evolved through academic study, professional learning and encounters with people living with dementia.
A particularly meaningful experience was attending a Memory Bridge retreat, which challenged me to look beyond the practical tasks of caregiving and reflect more deeply on the importance of human presence, empathy and simply being with another person.
This experience continues to influence the way I approach dementia care and family relationships.
What Shaped My Approach
Why I Founded Anchor Dementia Care
I founded Anchor Dementia Care to bridge psychological understanding and the lived realities of family caregiving.
My aim is to help families navigate dementia while preserving the relationships that matter to them, without overlooking the emotional wellbeing of those providing care.
Through personalised guidance and the development of The CLEAR Path™ Programme, I hope to translate psychological knowledge into meaningful, everyday support.
My aspiration is simple: to help make dementia care not only more informed, but more human.
