Bio:
Ashley Ballou is a registered occupational therapist and has worked with clients and their families across the lifespan, including individuals with Dementia for over 10 years. Her passion for serving caregivers began when she became a long-distance caregiver of her late grandmother for eight years. Coming from a small family, she directly understands the time, emotional, physical, and financial toll caregiving wears on the caregiver. Thus, Caregiver Thrive, a care and wellness program for caregivers, was created. The program bridges the gap for caregivers who recognize the value of taking care of themselves, need therapeutic support and/or practical tips for their loved one, and desire a holistic wellness model, but don’t want to google their way through the answers. Caregiver Thrive provides the concierge model of care with compassion and respect to their environment.
