Angelica P. Herrera DrPH

Welcome! You are not here by accident.

This channel offers clear and practical guidance for navigating the emotional journey of caregiving.

I’m Angelica, a gerontologist with 25+ years of experience in the aging and caregiver space, a caregiver coach, certified dementia care practitioner, and trained as an End-of-Life Doula  (INELDA). 

As a former NIH Fellow in Geriatric Psychiatry and Health & Aging Policy Fellow, I share guidance with those caring for family members with dementia, chronic illness, or facing end-of-life decisions.

Plus, I share ways to advocate for change to this twisted long-term care system.

Topics include caregiving strategies, nervous system regulation, self-care, balancing responsibilities, navigating services, and moving through life transitions with greater confidence. You’ll learn to care for others without abandoning yourself.

If you feel overwhelmed or alone—you’re in the right place.
