Abstract

Date Presented 4/20/2018

This study underscores the benefits and challenges of use of the Occupational Profile Template (OPT) by novice clinicians in capturing clients’ perspective of self and occupational identity. Use of the OPT reinforces the profession’s goal of promoting the discipline as an occupation-based practice that promotes health.
