- How to Start Your Own Occupational Therapy Practice & OT Clinic.

How I went from a frustrated Occupational Therapist wondering if I had picked the right career path, to having an amazing career and running two companies that support occupational therapy in different ways.
Before becoming a business owner. Before becoming a Certified Hand Therapist…
I was that new Occupational Therapist graduate looking for a way to get a job in hand therapy because it was a goal of mine to become a Certified Hand Therapist. But I kept hearing the same thing…”we need someone with experience”. But how can I get experience without the job?
It wasn’t like I opened my clinic doors and there was a line of patients waiting to be treated by me JUST because I was a Certified Hand Therapist.
It wasn’t like every hand surgeon would send me patients because they just loved the results that I got their patients.
Long hours trying to develop more skills - from therapy to business skills.
Days wondering if I had made a mistake with endless amounts of self doubt.
Nights worrying that I am doing a disservice to my family and kids who were supposed to have more time with me.
But when the patients did start coming in, and the phone was ringing off the hook…who was going to help me?
The final straw was when I was trying to go on vacation and I had no occupational therapist who could step in with the skills that I needed. When I had no certified hand therapist with the confidence to treat complex cases…
I needed to take a stand!

Im on the path. This video is very encouraging. Thank you ❤
Good for you! Keep going. Thanks for watching :)
Thank you so much for sharing your story. This is a great advice. I'm an OTA, and starting school for OTD next year and plan to work and finish school. I would like to open up my private clinic for OT. I am not sure when that would be, but watching this video definitely gave me a perspective of mindset of an entrepreneur!! I can't wait to see more updates!! Following!
Thanks for watching. Great luck with school!

You should have gone CASH BASED, like a lot of very successful Physical Therapist have done! They don't even waste their time dealing with insurance companies anymore.
There’s a strategy and pain point for all models. It’s like the grass…everyone thinks it’s greener on the other side 😂 it’s green where you water it 😉
