Done a wonderful job Celso. Keep posting about different conditions and what an occupational therapist can do. Nice job keep posting some more.
Most community-based mental heath programs receive funding so that they are free for participants. (From the Department of Mental Health, private institutions, etc).
wow I thought that social workers where the ones that dealt with this stuff. I'm interested in this career because it combines not only therapy but a variety of other different things such as cooking and art as activities to help people's mental health. Good Job, and as they say in the orchestra Bravo!
Very informational Thank you!!
Thank you! I'm just starting my education to become a Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant, and your video was very inspiring.
This is awesome—I'm finishing my degree (FW2) and want to work in mental health. There's so few jobs in this area though!!
