Strengths-Based Approach

Our approach for occupational therapy services uses a strengths-based approach for each one of our clients for various reasons. We believe that by focusing on our clients resilience rather than deficits and building upon the strengths and interests of our clients is a successful method of increasing life skills and quality of life. Research has shown that strengths-based intervention is effective in promoting improved mental/emotional health and well-being. Research has also shown that using a strengths-based approach is valuable in:

-Improving coping skills for meeting challenges

-Reducing anxiety and stress

-Developing self-advocacy skills

-Promoting skill acquisition and enhancement

-Increasing knowledge and skills
