Episode 31 - Use of Humour in Occupational Therapy


In this episode, I speak again with Alice Hortop from Episode 27, about the use of humour in Occupational Therapy. Alice shares the benefits humour can have during therapeutic interactions and when it is or not appropriate to use it. We also discuss the impact humour/laughing/smiling can have on us as individuals working in stressful environments and how awareness of this is important. Below are some useful links to
