Synopsis

“This is a text we have all been waiting for...I can’t help but think that our earlier leaders in mental health—Dr. Adolph Meyer, Dr. William Dutton, and Eleanor Clark Slagle, to name a few—who knew the power of occupation and stressed the importance of engagement in an enabling environment, would be pleased to see this work come to a format that would guide clinicians to make a difference in the everyday lives of people with mental challenges that require the skills of an occupational therapist.”

—Carolyn M. Baum, PhD, OTR/L,

from the Foreword

This Client-centered, recovery-oriented text gives voice to the lived experience of mental illness across the life span.
