Most families wait for crisis.
You can act while there are still choices.
Preserve Choice.
Treasure Coast Cognition is a Direct Cognitive Care practice
Accepting families starting January 2026
“Think of it as a wealth advisor for your brain. Just as you wouldn't wait until bankruptcy to manage your finances, you shouldn't wait until crisis to protect your cognitive future. Let’s create wealth for something that matters to us.”
What is Cognitive Stewardship?
We Preserve Choice 7-10 years before a dementia diagnosis when decisions matter most.
Stay in control of your own life:
Where you live
Who decides
Who provides care
Who controls money
Who gets to make these decisions
We will act early, when protection works best.

What Families Say
"It was so challenging earlier this year to know that we were struggling but to not have permission to engage, support, envision, and create a different trajectory. I believe that some of the most connected and fulfilling years of my parents' lives could be ahead, if we can help them see and create that future."
“You struck just the right chord with our family, and I was so thrilled to hear my husband laugh and joke with you. It has been quite a long time since I've seen this with him, so thank you! He told me that he has never met a doctor that was so knowledgeable and yet put him very much at ease.”
"You've listened deeply in ways that are unlike my experience with other healthcare providers—leaving us in a fundamentally different place than where we were when we began just four weeks ago."
"[This work has] the potential to be transformative for our family—which means it's priceless."
Be Part of Something New
We're launching Cognitive Stewardship with a select group of founding families who understand that brain health deserves the same proactive attention we give to cardiovascular fitness or cancer screening.
If you're ready to move from waiting to stewardship, we're ready to guide you.
