The hidden magic of Occupational Therapy | Jill Martin | TEDxYouth@Haileybury

Jill Martin is a Mental Health Occupational Therapist, Life coach, Master NLP Practitioner and Hypnotherapist.

Mental Health Occupational Therapy is often mis-understood and marginalised, many people have never even heard of it. Yet, it is a profession that began back in the 17 th century and remains integral to NHS Mental Health services.

Occupational Therapists offer a refreshing change to talking therapy, they assist people to identify the activities they need and want to do, figure out what’s getting in the way and get creative with their clients to problem solve and achieve productive, meaningful purposeful activity.

Essentially Mental Health Occupational Therapy focuses on getting on with life, achieving priority activities, whilst working on the treatment of
emotional distress.

Occupational Therapists hold a science-based degree and have a deep clinical understanding of all human pathology. Trained in learning disorder, Physical and mental health, Occupational Therapists offer a truly holistic approach.

In this talk Jill describes the power of this little known yet highly effective profession and calls for more people to recognise what it has to offer. Jill Martin is a Mental Health Occupational Therapist, Life coach, Master
NLP Practitioner and Hypnotherapist. After dedicating 18 years to NHS Mental Health Services Jill set up her private Mental Health Occupational Therapy Practice in 2018 and in 2020 she and Co-Founder Nicky Green, launched Purpose People Ltd, a company delivering Occupational Therapy (NOT Occupational Health!!) in London with a talented team of Occupational Therapy Assistants.
