TESTIMONIALS

Don’t just take it from us.

I’ve been following The Pocket OT for a while now and wanted to let you know how helpful the website has been. It’s empowered me because I am in a rural area and need fun treatment ideas for our small team.

Jennifer, COTA

I felt burned out and wondered why I became an OT. After taking Cara’s course and mentoring program, I found my WHY again!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Kimberly J. Charlotte, NC

5/5 stars!

The Trauma-Informed Care course was absolutely amazing. I learned so much and can’t wait to use it.

Rebekah Schachner, OTD Student

I wanted to let you know I have attended some other Trauma related courses in the past, however, I think since yours is from the OT perspective, I found it to be much more informative and useful to implement in to future treatments. Thank you so much!

Kathryn Andersen, MOTR/L

I thought I knew what executive function was but after the master course, I am completely looking at the students on my caseload in a new way. It’s amazing how behavior and EF are related.

Tasha, Miami

Cara not only brought a plethora of knowledge to our community, but she was also able to talk to parents with a compassionate understanding of the challenges they face.

Cara Koscinski is one of my favorite resources to share! She has such a passion for teaching and sharing her extensive knowledge about everything from sensory issues to everyday strategies that make life work. Cara’s an amazing expert with first-hand experience. She explains things in a way that anyone can understand, and her tips are always practical, compassionate, and helpful! I just LOVE her and her tips!
