#Play...Training Intern members on play at SEP was fun. My take home was, if we don't engage in play ourselves, how can we teach our clients to play? How can we know its importance if we don't play? It sure was fun playing and learning today! #Playskills #OTMonth #AutismAwareness

#AI.... This week, as I was doing a session with one of my student's, I heard a group discussing how they would do their homework using Chat GPT. I went home with conflicting thoughts: Are the students embracing AI or missing out on learning how to research and extract data?...

#Awareness month... I call October an awareness month because lots of great awareness sessions are done this month. Here is a great webinar you can plan to attend to learn lots about ADHD and how we can all view it from a strength based perspective. Link: meet.google.com/bpq-appk-ceo

#WorldOTDay... Unity through Community is this year's theme of world OT Day. As therapists, we are to focus on working collaboratively with other professionals and Community members for our clients' betterment. I chose to foster collaborations! #WorldOTDay2023 #OTKE #Collaborate

#Backtowork... As a practicing pediatric occupational therapist, I always love hearing vacation stories from my clients. Retelling their experience builds the child's working memory, executive functioning, and storytelling techniques. #Backtoschool #Vacation #EF #DOT #OTKE

Monday morning routine: - Catch up on pending work from last week. - Plan the day and week. - Try to squeeze in a workout routine. - Start the day. Happy Monday, everyone!

#otchronicles... Evidence-based progress makes my day. The before image is when I did the first assessment, and the after image was taken during a reassessment after the OT intervention. Fine motor progress is possible, and a student's handwriting can change! #OTke #DOT

#Autismawareness… Awareness creation is a big part of advocacy; Thank you, Agnes and the KTN team, for stirring us as professionals to do better and collaborate. Here is a link to watch the recording youtu.be/xEhvSDoJHjE?si… youtu.be/N-AnHhurWPE?si… #OTKE #DOT #autismawareness2024

#WeAreAWEC.... The AWEC general summit had an impact on all participants. I was honored to receive the brand ambassador award. In addition, I learned and networked with entrepreneurs across the globe. Partnerships and collaborations in business are game changers. #Wearebold

Caption #CapacityDevelopment…. Yesterday I enjoyed engaging SEP interns through a workshop. Play was the topic, and participants did play and learned about incorporating play in their work as special needs professionals. #Playbasedintervetions #OT #PT #SEN #Psychologists #DOT
