Diana, It sounds like you have the right reasons for pursuing OT. I have recently finished my program and will be taking my certification exam in the next month. I have had a few moments where I have had some doubts about the OT program with on class or another. I did not fully understand OT and what it encompasses until after my fieldworks. I had bits and pieces but couldn't put it all together. I had a good idea but practicing it puts everything into perspective. I finally feel like I have a clue as to what it means to practice OT, not just going through the motions but incorporating the theries. I am sure you already get hit with the question of what OT is? I get it all the time and my answer is constantly changing. I usually stick with the generic answer of ADL's and the holistic approach, but It is quite a bit more than that. I love the idea that this profession can be very broad as you need it to be until you find that area or niche that is perfect for you. Well I have ramble! d on long enough.
