Is this for me?

You need someone to help you through a recent illness/set back or chronic/progressive situation. Maybe you completed outpatient rehab and need the next level of personal coaching

You may need to train caregivers to step in to support you. I can help with that.

Longevity
Longevity and aging refer to the interdisciplinary field that focuses on understanding the biological, psychological, and social factors that influence the aging process and lifespan.
It encompasses research and practices aimed at extending the human lifespan, improving health and well-being in later life, and mitigating age-related diseases and decline. This field draws from various disciplines, including biology, genetics, medicine, public health, and social sciences, to develop interventions and strategies that promote healthy aging and longevity.
This is not an Occupational Therapy service. This is not billable to insurance: coaching services are not medically necessary, are not ordered by physicians, do not require a plan of care or documentation of services, and therefore are not reimbursable by insurance.
These services are not intended to replace traditional rehabilitative occupational therapy services as prescribed by a physician.

Occupational Therapist
I am so glad that you are here, and I hope we meet soon. Until then, let me tell you about myself. I am an occupational therapist applying decades of clinical experience to serve you in a non-traditional way after seeing the huge gap in healthcare that you face. My speciality is teaching others what I know and how to use therapeutic skills: promoting therapeutic caregiving and individualized coaching and support.
I am not providing occupational therapy services, but providing you with consultative and coaching interventions that will teach you how to make dramatic changes that will be life-changing.
I have been told countless times, "No one has ever explained that to me before." Or, "That makes so much sense, but I never thought about it like that." I love helping people in this way.
My specialty is inspiring people to elevate their living experience and harness the power of small change to make a significant impact on quality of life.
Through 28 years of practice, I have served people from birth to old age. Having been fortunate to work in families' homes, at the hospital bedside, and in skilled nursing facilities, I understand the deficit in support and training for families, caregivers, and the aging population. This inspired me to create a different way of using my skills as an occupational therapist; through coaching others to use therapeutic approaches and training them to:
-
identify barriers (social, environmental, physical, emotional, cognitive)
-
identify strengths and potential for greater independence
-
how to use therapeutic handling and interactions
-
develop an inspired plan of action that is easy to follow
Now, I am sharing years of professional insight with families, spouses, caregivers, and determined individuals who are seeking a thriving life experience.
I created a formula to train others to deliver therapeutic skills on a daily basis that will have a cumulative power and effectiveness to impact all areas of life, and I want to share that with you.
When I work with you, my program will be curated to your specific needs and situation. Providing in-person and/or virtual interactions to guide you toward the freedom of inspired living. Training you to thrive.
Our current healthcare system faces a growing crisis of meeting the needs of the aging population, while there is also a growing limitation of insurance coverage for millions. This creates a huge need for more skilled caregivers and individuals willing to work proactively for their sustained independence.
