Hi! My name is Pippa, I am 31 and currently working as an OTA and training as an occupational therapist. In OT you must understand people's needs, find their talents and help them grow and move forward. I really do believe if we look hard enough there is a power within ourselves to reach goals in life. I can see the hard work and commitment that goes into OT and the smiles on peoples faces when they achieve something they never thought they could, no matter what a person's disability they still have talents. Helping people through occupation and having patience, intuition and problem solving skills can really impact on one's life.
