This experience has profoundly enriched my approach as an OT, allowing me to better understand and address the emotional, and sometimes traumatic, contributors to a client's pelvic heath. We brainstormed sensitive ways to talk, validate, interview and really get to know someone’s experience. Learning to integrate both the physical and emotional aspects of healing has equipped me to offer more compassionate and effective care to my patients. It’s a privilege to bring this knowledge into my practice and support the healing journey of the women I work with.
