One of the general trends we’ve been following on the podcast is the potential of using coaching strategies in occupational therapy.
And, as therapists around the globe are dialing into teletherapy, this research trend merits some consideration. After all, it may be an effective strategy to consider as many of us are seeking to restructure how we offer our occupational therapy services.

You can join the conversation about this research in The OT Potential Club!
