In this episode of "Animals and Aquatics," hosts Ryan and Gina explore the concept of growth in non-traditional occupational therapy (OT) practices. They use the analogy of a tree to illustrate the stages of development from a clinician's roots in traditional OT to branching out into non-traditional settings. The hosts emphasize the importance of strong foundational knowledge in OT theory and interventions before embarking on non-traditional paths. They discuss the gradual expansion of practice, starting small, and finding ways to incorporate unique practice elements, all while recognizing the cyclical nature of growth in these settings. Overall, this episode offers insights into the journey of growth for OTs interested in animals and aquatics in OT practice.
