Facilitating classes for seniors,

Thanks very much for visiting my site! I hope you find exactly what you are looking for here.  I have facilitated classes at Mary's Woods, Carmen Oaks, and am currently teaching a sandplay class, as well as facilitating a transitional assistance group at Somerset Assisted Living in Gladstone. I have recently extended for another year the classes at the Eastside Athletic Clubs in Portland and Milwaukee. I just graduated with my MA from Marylhurst University with a certificate in Gerontology and my focus is in sharing information with elders about a variety of subjects, including:

Memory Changes and Aging, Communicating with loved ones who have Alzheimer's or other dementia, Embodiment, Stress Reduction Techniques,   Guided Imagery, Grief and Loss, Transitioning through Change, Creating Affirmations, and Listening to Your Body.

Lifespan Development

Development is a lifelong process, we never stop learning or growing. Participating in classes helps to exercise the brain and gives an opportunity to share experiences with others in a positive and safe environment.

Comments of past clients:

"Ruby's style immediately puts people at ease. She is organized, and has well planned presentations. I recommend Ruby without reservation."
