If you’re stepping into the world of school-based occupational therapy or thinking about making the transition, you likely have more questions than answers. What’s the difference between clinical and school-based OT? How do you handle IEPs, caseloads, and collaboration with teachers? Where do you even start?
You’re not alone—and that’s exactly why I created A Beginner’s Guide for School-Based Occupational Therapy Practitioners, now available for download here.
This concise yet comprehensive 14-page guide is designed to give you the clarity, confidence, and practical tools you need to thrive in a school setting.
Why I Wrote This eBook
As a pediatric occupational therapist with over 20 years of experience, I remember how overwhelming it felt when I first entered the school system. The terminology, the timelines, the team dynamics—it was a lot. Over the years, I’ve mentored many OTs who felt the same way. So I compiled the most essential knowledge and real-world advice into this beginner-friendly guide.
It’s the resource I wish I had when I was starting out—and now, it’s yours.
