Because Life is an Action Word - regardless of your abilities
Live Your Life Therapeutic Recreation Services
Why Recreation Therapy is Important
The pursuit of happiness. Happiness is an abstract concept that can mean so many things to so many people, yet it is truly something that we all seek. As citizens we all have this right, regardless of our abilities. I have spent over 30 years working as a Recreational Therapist in mental health, rehabilitation and long term care. I have been actively helping others seek their “inalienable right” to happiness all this time!
Recreation and fun are frequently involved in setting the stage for happiness. Recreational Therapy harnesses this desire and pursuit as a tool to achieve therapeutic goals in recovering from a disabling condition. Recreational Therapists use recreation and leisure activities as interventions in a systematic process that addresses the assessed needs of the client. Therapeutic Recreation recognizes the power of designing interventions that are meaningful to each individual in creating a satisfying life, regardless of one’s abilities.
Live Your Life Therapeutic Recreation Services offers individual programs to meet the assessed needs of our clients in their living environment as they pursue a happy and satisfying life. Our approaches are strength based and the systematic assessment and evaluation inherent in the delivery of Recreational Therapy ensures that the program is personalized and the interventions stress engagement of the client. We do not entertain. We engage our clients, to help them live their lives.
Perhaps this quote says it best (I wish I knew who to give credit to...):
“Recreation’s purpose is not to kill time, but to make life. Not to keep a person occupied, but to keep them refreshed. Not to offer an escape from life, but to provide a discovery of life.” Author Unknown
