In the first few months of practice, the novice Occupational Therapist (OT) moves from theoretical knowledge to practical clinical skills.  If you don’t have an on-site, professionally relevant mentor this first few months, OT practice can be a scary and frustrating time for new graduate, novice OTs.

Mentoring is about personal and professional growth and involves providing guidance, advice, and sharing experiences to help guide a clinician’s practice.  The relationship is informal, organic and supportive. 

As your mentor, I will provide critical thinking and problem solving guidance, share experiences, and offer insights based on my own experiences and expertise.  Mentorship is a reciprocal relationship where we both contribute to its success!
