This article will focus in a very personal way on a practice, its organization and composition, and on the procedures initiated in closing this large, full-time occupational therapy program. The practice has dealt exclusively with the treatment of childhood learning disorders, as well as with adolescents and adults identified under the current nomenclature of Attention Deficit Disorders. Because the author was one of the first, if not the first, to establish a private practice in the treatment of learning disabilities, it is felt that all therapists can benefit from her unique personal experiences. The author cites what, in restrospect, might have been done differently, and offers concrete suggestions for therapists in establishing, maintaining and terminating a private practice in occupational therapy. |
