74: My Published Research on Nature-Based Pediatric Occupational Therapy - Part 2 (Results)
This week's podcast episode is part 2 of the "audio book" version of my published research on nature-based pediatric occupational therapy. You'll hear the results of the study, which found 6 phases that work together as mechanisms of change in the nature-based pediatric occupational therapy process:
🏠 Longing for Freedom
☀️ Embarking on Adventure
🦅 Dancing with Nature
🙌 Claiming Self-Agency
⚡️ Braving Real-Life Challenges
🌱 Growing Adaptive Capacity
Next week will be the 3rd (and final) part of the "audiobook" version of the article, where I'll share the discussion section to give you some takeaways for application to your nature-based pediatric practice.
