All About Occupation: “How Did I Get Here? One Occupational Therapist’s Search for Meaning”

Allison Sullivan, DOT, OTR/L Associate Professor of Occupational Therapy American International College, Springfield, MA, USA Session Title “How Did I Get Here? One Occupational Therapist’s Search for Meaning” Session Details (TW // sexual violence) The purpose of this session is to provide my personal perspective as a practitioner, educator, and researcher on the topics identified as the focus of this seminar series. In these roles, I have attempted to understand people as occupational beings. This quest has led me to explore and promote people’s engagement in activities, and in learning in particular, and appreciate the high degree of trauma many people have experienced or are experiencing whenever they attempt something new or challenging. This recognition has shaped my teaching and intervention practices and has me now focused on the legacy of occupational therapy in mental health, so I would like to share some resources that have resonated with me on this journey, in hopes that they may inspire others, cause discussion, and engage lively debate.

In 2006, as I was first shifting from a clinical to educational focus, I was hopeful; the community-engaged scholar is a role that has held significance for me. In the aftermath of a personally chaotic period of my life. I met Tina Champagne, and she inspired me then and has continued to be a source of motivation, persistence, and determination in my contribution to OT. It has always been my hope that I could contribute to improving the health and well-being of the people I encounter in life. The chance to teach holds a special potential and obligation in achieving my goals. I became very interested in studying how students learn, and how to maximize significant learning. I examined the meaning of my students’ and my own engagement in activities in many very diverse contexts, and the relationship between occupation, identity, trauma, recovery and self-discovery https://research.aota.org/ajot/articl... https://clairecunnington.com/ https://articlegateway.com/index.php/... As this process has continued to evolve, I have been able to create community-based collaborations with local organizations in which I have become involved https://www.mlkjrfamilyservices.org/a... https://www.viability.org/ And begun to reflect on my own legacy and those who helped shaped my experience as an OT practitioner, educator & researcher: https://www.allen-cognitive-network.org/ https://naric.com/?q=en/content/order... https://www.otleaders.org/home For more and how to register for future seminars, see: https://blogs.brighton.ac.uk/occupation/ Please note: These automatic captions are generated by machine-learning algorithms, so the quality of the captions may vary.
