The ICDH-2 Framework, AOTA Practice Guidelines and Framework and the Model of Human Occupation (MOHO) are used as a theoretical and practice framework for promoting health and optimal occupational performance for the helpee. Professional topics related to therapeutic use of self, interviewing, ethical practice, clinical reasoning, professional development and health promotion/wellness-oriented practice are covered.
