“Every mountain top is within reach if you just keep climbing.”

The Values That Drive My Practice

Participation in Life

Everyone deserves to live life to the fullest, as defined by the individual.

Meaning

What is meaningful to clients and their significant others is the priority.

Clients' Values

These drive the therapeutic process

Autonomy

Clients make their own decisions about what is best for them.

Relationship

Rapport and trust with my clients are priorities.

Collaboration

Clients, their significant others, and I are equal partners throughout the therapy process. Clients and I walk paths together for a period of time.

Doing

Performing meaningful and valued occupations (daily life activities in which people engage) improves health.

Authentic Environments

For the best results, it’s important for clients to work on improvement of occupations in the actual environments in which they will be performed. Therefore, I travel to the clients’ locations.

Person, Environment, Occupation (PEO)

In order for clients to improve in their performance of occupations, the physical, cognitive, sensory, and psychosocial factors need to be considered related to the person, the environment, and the occupation.

Adaption

Often necessary based on medical conditions, disability, traumatic experiences, cognitive changes, learning styles, and/or attention issues.

Habits & Routines

Establishing or re-establishing these are often important for living life to the fullest

"One may walk over the highest mountain one step at a time."
