Occupational therapy (OT) is a health profession designed to rehabilitate the body and mind from injury or illness by empowering you to overcome physical, cognitive or emotional barriers so you can participate in meaningful activities and improve your overall quality of life.

If you are having trouble with your daily tasks, OT helps to solve, prevent or minimize challenges that interfere with your ability to complete important daily activities, such as self-care, including dressing, eating, and moving around the house. Occupational therapy can also help minimize challenges with mental health and cognitive capabilities such as depression, memory issues and multitasking.
