That Place You Know, LLC.® (TPYK)
“Every memory-impaired person has a unique story to be told, that leads them back to a loving place of feeling accepted unconditionally, without judgement or fear. Through the Validation method we can share what that loving place looks and feels like. It allows us to step into another person’s world with no social boundaries, but with full acceptance that we are connected as unique individuals openly embracing one another based on compassion, respect and dignity.”
