I was drawn to occupational therapy because of its unique ability to empower people, helping them overcome challenges and build independence in the activities that matter most to them. I love that occupational therapy takes a holistic approach, looking at the whole person not just their diagnosis. Being able to truly listen to people, understand their goals, and support them in finding meaningful solutions is what makes this profession so rewarding.”
