About the store

An occupational therapist with 3 years experience in multiple settings, the latest focused in on mental health. I'm always looking for ways for clients to practice their therapeutic and mental health skills regularly and in contexts they're intrinsically motivated to use. Hence, videogames. I love them and I think they can be powerful therapeutic tools. I've been pursuing the link between mental health, occupational health, and technology in myriad ways from MIT hackathons to research for American Occupational Therapy Association
