Welcome to OTCoach – a quality, independent service dedicated to serving the personal and professional development of Occupational Therapists. There are shifts occurring which are changing health, wellbeing and social care forever. We are all being required to be empowered and proactive in relation to our health, environment, communities, education and wellbeing. This, coupled with advances in psychology, neuro-science and rehabilitation, make it a challenging but exciting time to be an Occupational Therapist. OTCoach has been working with individual OT’s, OT services and training providers for the last 5 years, during which time, we have seen the amazing benefits that coaching holds. Interest in coaching in occupational therapy continues to grow as both professions aim to help people live their lives with balance and purpose.
Coaching has helped OTs to greater personal fulfilment, start a new business, develop an idea or just rekindle passion for OT: “The coaching has given me confidence. My uncertainty about the future has gone and I have clarity of vision” T.F.
Many OT’s are now using coaching with their day to day work with clients, patients and service users: “Today, following a brief conversation with a service user, we managed to move from the terrible headache he experienced all day every day, to how brilliant his life is at the moment, apparently the best it has ever been” R.W.
At OTCoach we aspire to support the Occupational Therapy profession as it moves through these changing times. We believe, with passion, that the time is now here, for the unique benefits OT holds to be recognised and valued in the world.
“Now is the time for Occupational Therapy to shine”
