Occupational Therapist
Occupational Therapists (OT’s) provide support for individuals whose ability to function in day to day activities (occupations) is disrupted by physical or mental illness. OT’s help identify obstacles or barriers that prevent a person living their life to the full. They will work collaboratively to promote practical solutions or adaptations that can make someone’s life more meaningful.
This support can be provided 1-1 or through group sessions and encourages self-management wherever possible.
Occupational therapy also promotes the use of meaningful occupations (activities important to the individual) to help individuals maintain good mental and physical health. We are passionate about activity – whether that’s resting, working, exercising or socialising. Balance is key!
