Description

Creativity stimulates older adults both mentally and emotionally and has numerous cognitive and social benefits.

Providing culturally-sensitive strategies for improving memory through creativity, this timely book outlines innovative techniques and gives essential insight into effective clinical work in a world with an increasing number of diverse older adults and incidences of Alzheimer's disease.

Amanda Alders Pike clearly explains how to structure sessions and use artistic creativity to improve memory, mood and socialization.

She covers everything from how to introduce art materials and techniques, to how to enhance cross-cultural interaction.

Graphs, charts, and tables illustrate how artistic creativity can parallel cognitive training to provide optimal benefits to a wide audience of older adults, and accompanying online material is provided for use in sessions and workshops.
