Occupational therapy is a client-centered health profession. Using a holistic approach, occupational therapists facilitate improved capability in their client and then adapt the task and environment, empowering the person to resume their meaningful occupations. Occupational therapists work with clients of all ages from diverse cultures in a variety of treatment settings.

Occupational therapy assistants work in collaboration with the occupational therapist to improve the health and well being of their client within an ever-changing environment.
