Testimonials for Workshops“I was constantly amazed and humbled by the responses that Donna evoked from these elders. Her guidance, skilled facilitation and gentleness created an environment of safety, which allowed for full expression of emotions. Donna is equally skilled whether working with residents with  minimal cognitive impairments or with advanced dementia. She is able
to tap into the inner dignity and wholeness of her clients, and exudes a spirit of respect and
affirmation to which people of all ages and abilities respond.Donna is a woman of integrity, deep compassion, and humor who uses her whole self to enhance the growth of others. She is a rare healing gift.” - Carol Hani, social worker  “Your humor, joy, spirit and authenticity have touched me and so many others.” - Lauren Persky, expressive therapist “It was so nice to be able to experience your charm firsthand; and to see my mother happily participating while using her legs in a way which I was not aware she was still able. Thank you.” - family member of elderly resident “It was . . . the spirit, the love, and the joy that spread from every cell in your body to us that was so inspiring.” -Lillian, dance / movement therapist “There was a wonderful flow of energy between you and the residents and between the residents themselves that seemed to infuse the participants with joy.” - observer of dance / movement therapy group Additional words of praise for Donna’s workshops:
