About
Outpatient Mental Health OT: Applying the CB-FOR is a self-paced program for occupational therapy practitioners seeking to integrate cognitive-behavioral strategies into practice to improve client outcomes. It equips clinicians with tools to implement interventions for mental illness, insomnia, and lifestyle challenges in outpatient settings. Dr. Monica J. Jones has applied cognitive-behavioral principles since 2018, achieving clinically significant improvements in occupational performance in her outpatient practice. Learning outcomes: 1. Participants will analyze and apply the background and science of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in occupational therapy by successfully completing a knowledge assessment quiz, demonstrating an understanding of how CBT principles enhance occupational performance in daily activities. 2. Participants will be able to identify the key steps required to develop an outpatient mental health OT service line and demonstrate competency through a structured quiz activity, ensuring access to interventions that support clients in achieving meaningful occupational engagement. 3. Participants will examine initial occupational therapy evaluation, treatment, and discharge structure and apply learning in a knowledge assessment quiz to effectively assess and address occupational performance challenges related to mental health conditions. 4. Participants will compare and apply cognitive-behavioral treatment interventions by engaging in worksheet activities and knowledge quizzes, enabling them to facilitate improved occupational participation and functional independence in their clients.
