Happy OT Month!
One of the blessings of occupational therapy is that there are many ways we can provide care and support to help people reach their goals.

With a Doctorate in Occupational Therapy and over 20 years of experience in traditional care, I’ve witnessed firsthand the profound impact that holistic approaches can have on individuals’ lives. Transitioning from traditional care to holistic care has been a profoundly transformative journey for me, both personally and professionally.
