Mental health OTs are a little different to what people often think of as “traditional” occupational therapy. At KCPsych, our mental health OT services focus on emotional regulation, executive functioning, and day-to-day mental wellbeing - not physical rehab or home modifications.
A mental health OT can support you with:
âś” Building coping strategies for daily life
âś” Activity-based therapy like cooking, planning, or routines
âś” Establishing supportive routines for self-care, work, and leisure
âś” Developing emotional regulation skills
âś” Improving daily functioning and capacity building
Mental health OTs don’t work on physical mobility, injuries, or home modifications. Instead, they help people build the skills and structure needed to manage everyday life more confidently and sustainably.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by daily tasks, routines, or emotions, mental health OT support might be a great fit. 💛
