Mike-
My immediate thought about your message is: what ever happened to client
centered practice? I thought the very foundation of OT was in occupations
that are personally meaningful- the term personally refers to the client, not
the therapist. The CLIENT'S religion should be respected and influence the
course of therapy, NOT the therapists. This is similar to shaping
therapeutic interactions around what the client wants to achieve and the
level of independence he or she wants to achieve, not how independent I thing
he or she should be.
Tapping into spirituality as a motivational modality or a realm for
meaningful occupations is altogether different and quite acceptable, so long
as it is the client's spirituality.
