FAQs
-
OT in mental health focuses on helping individuals develop the skills, routines, and confidence they need to live a fulfilling life. Whether you’re managing anxiety, depression, burnout, or the effects of trauma, OT can help you navigate daily challenges and regain a sense of control and balance.
-
You may benefit from OT if you’re:
Struggling with motivation, energy, or daily routines;
Experiencing difficulty managing stress, anxiety, or depression;
Returning to work or school after a leave;
Feeling overwhelmed with everyday tasks or decision-making;
Looking for structure, tools, or support to feel more grounded.
-
While both support mental well-being, OT takes a functional, action-oriented approach. Instead of focusing solely on emotions or thoughts, I help you build practical strategies for daily life. Such as : creating routines, managing energy, developing coping strategies, or returning to meaningful roles.
