What is Occupational Therapy
The term Occupation refers to the activities or occupations that fill our time. Occupational therapists work with clients to promote a sense of purpose and meaning in their lives by focusing on routine activities and habits. Occupational Therapists use meaningful activities to bring about profound changes in the lives of their client partners. While OT’s work in numerous settings and with a vast array of client types, the consistent theme of enhancing participation in meaningful occupations is the core of the profession.
