ABOUT SHAINA SCHAFER
For more than nine years, I have been privileged to work at the intersection of clinical care and human connection—delivering evidence-based telehealth interventions that restore cognitive function, enhance independence and quality of life, and lighten the often-heavy load carried by family caregivers. My background as an occupational therapist has grounded me in the realities of supporting older adults, veterans, and families facing complex cognitive and functional challenges. What drives me most is the human side of this work: creating moments of clarity and hope for patients and caregivers too often left believing \'nothing can be done.\'
