Only in this past year did it come on my radar that some therapy clinics are offering prenatal therapy. While I can personally relate to the desire to have a therapist guide you through such a complex stage of health, I thought that because it isn't offered widely, the evidence base would probably be weak.
I couldn't have been more wrong. The evidence for prenatal prevention therapy is robust for improving:
Pelvic health. Pelvic floor muscle training during pregnancy reduces urinary incontinence by 28% and cuts the risk of severe perineal tears in half (Zhang et al., 2024).
Pregnancy outcomes. Prenatal exercise programs lower the risk of gestational diabetes by 25%, hypertensive disorders by 33%, and cesarean delivery by 14% (Xiang et al., 2026).
Mental health. Mind-body interventions like yoga, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy significantly reduce prenatal anxiety, depression, and stress â while also improving pain management and self-efficacy (Miao et al., 2026).
Maternal role and quality of life. OT-specific prenatal interventions improve maternal quality of life, emotional regulation, and coping â with benefits that persist into the postpartum period (Karakus & Akyurek, 2026).
Despite this evidence, prenatal therapy remains vastly underutilized. The gap between what the research supports and what is actually available to pregnant individuals represents one of the biggest opportunities in our profession right now.
In this course, we'll welcome Marissa Ruhl from Thrive OT, who is paving the way in offering these services and will share what she has learned about helping to build a thriving practice around this massive need.

The rapid rise of AI chat presenting as therapists has spurred a reaction to differentiate what AI can do versus the work of a licensed therapist.
This is causing many people to look more closely at the question:
What Is Therapy?
In todayâs discussion, weâll both look back at how therapy has been understood historically and look forward to cutting-edge research like âinterpersonal neural synchrony,â which is being studied across therapy professions and perhaps paving the way for a unified definition of therapy and its biological mechanisms. Understanding therapy in a neurobiological way will also help us understand why therapy is so often measured by triangulating multiple outcome measures.
We are joined in the course by Megan Cornish, LICSW, and we hope it will inspire you to consider the remarkable power of therapeutic relationships (that we are just at the beginning of understanding.)

Itâs hard to overstate how important it is for OTs and PTs to understand the new value-based care models.
But, letâs be honestâthey are an overwhelming and confusing alphabet soup (TEAM, LEAD, GUIDE, ACO REACH), and thatâs just the acronyms.
For OTs and PTs, understanding these models will be the difference between being embedded in the healthcare team of the futureâwhere we deliver highly valued careâand falling into obscurity while our patients receive sub-par care.
Luckily, we have a master at demystifying the complex, Dana Strauss, back on the podcast. Youâll learn:-How to analyze new models
-How to understand your potential role in them
-How to move your career and your organization forwardI know therapists are so busy on the ground, but we canât afford to miss this one.

We all know that documentation is a heavy burden for therapists. But home health therapists arguably face one of the heaviest loads, with mandated OASIS reporting layered on top of standard clinical documentation â a dual requirement unique to this setting.
They also face challenges that clinic-based therapists rarely encounter: coordinating care across disciplines â physicians, nurses, and other therapists â often without shared documentation systems, as well as navigating privacy considerations and internet instability when documenting in patientsâ homes.
But, as weâve already discussed around outpatient EHRs, there are changes on the horizon. In this discussion, weâll zoom in on whatâs becoming possible in this complex environment, from clinical decision support to practical automation. Weâll be joined by Rohit Shetty of AutoMynd â Rohit is excellent at explaining exactly whatâs possible, while staying grounded in reality.

It feels like in every practice area, the importance of the vagus nerve is being talked about.
But nowhere is it being researched as much as vagal nerve stimulation post-stroke. And the initial results are promising â as long as it is paired with rehabilitation. The stimulation sets the body up for new motor learning, but then the rehab actually creates the change.
In this beginner's course, I'm excited to talk to Sarah Blair, OTR/L from Vivistim about what she has learned about this relatively new intervention and what generalist OTs need to know about this option.

In talking to therapy start-ups this year, I've heard a common stumbling block: Credentialing.
And, honestly, I was shocked when I dug into the space. It feels like the seemingly boring task of getting credentialed with insurance has turned into what honestly feels like a world of sharks. It seems like there are 3 trends at play:
This is truly a bureaucratic headache: You do need to buckle up for some super confusing portals to get credentialed.
Credentialing services are all too happy to take your money: They take your personal information because of this barrier-but because the process itself is murky, they often over-promise and under-deliver, without clarity into what is happening.
Big companies like Grow Therapy want to present this task as too difficult for an average therapist, so you join their platform (where they do the credentialing for you, but own your contract).
In today's episode, we want you to feel empowered to understand credentialing and billing with insurance. We'll help you understand this complex system and how you can navigate it.
Honestly, every therapist who works in insurance reimbursement should understand this process (because if you don't do it yourself, that means someone is probably doing it on your behalf). Our goal is for you to leave with a checklist of what to do-and the confidence to do it!

In the United States, approximately 49,000 people die by suicide each year. And, unfortunately, the rate of suicide has increased substantially since 2000, up about 30%.
Suicide remains among the 10 leading causes of death among persons aged 10-64 years and is the second leading cause of death among those aged 10-14 and 25-34.
While these trends are multifactorial, they are particularly distressing because evidence-based approaches to screening and intervention are better established than ever.
Yet confidence and training in these approaches remain too low â even among behavioral health workers. OTs, PTs, and SLPs are uniquely positioned to recognize warning signs through repeated, relationship-based care, but most receive little formal training in suicide prevention.
This course seeks to address that gap. We'll cover the basics of:
What to watch forEvidence based ScreeningEvidence based intervention And, the role of the team.We'll anchor our discussion in one of the most comprehensive evidence-based frameworks available: the VA/DoD Clinical Practice Guideline for Assessment and Management of Patients at Risk for Suicide (2024). And we'll be joined by Christine Weible-Cruz, LCSW, to get practical on what these guidelines look like in frontline care.

Fixing healthcare is simple: More people need preventative, conservative care earlier.
But getting to this fix is a massively complex web of structural policy choices. The reality is that our modern healthcare system often misaligns incentives, rewarding the management of chronic sickness over the investment in wellness. We've seen a shift toward market consolidation, where vertically integrated monopolies-both in insurance and hospital systems-drive up prices while limiting choice.
It's this playbook-which includes a lack of site-neutrality, high specialist payments, and insufficient transparency-that has allowed consolidated systems to post record revenues, even as:
Medicaid is cutInsurance premiums are upRural hospitals closeFrontline workers experience burnout and higher suicide rates.The US pays the most in the world for healthcare, without the leading outcomes to show for it.As therapy providers, we have watched as our common-sense bills collect dust. Our care is denied, our expenses are skyrocketing, and our reimbursement is stagnant because Medicare budgets are squeezed and commercial rates are failing to close the gap. We're fighting red tape to provide simple telehealth, while "AI Therapist" expands with a fraction of our professional oversight.
That's why I wanted to have U.S. Senate Candidate Dan Osborn on the podcast. I wanted to talk about therapy in the Senate. Why aren't we making true progress? How do we move our bills forward? And what does it take to tackle these structural failures

SEO has long been the absolute best way to maintain a consistent therapy client caseload for outpatient therapists. But, for therapists in all settings really, understanding and optimizing your digital real estate is often a secret sauce for career growth.
In today's course, we want to help you:
Recognize how important your digital real estate is to your practice.Optimize your presence with the right keywords.Understand the technical details needed for effective local SEO.Get the leads or contacts you actually want!This task has gone from important to urgent with the onslaught of vertical integration happening in therapy in 2026. Platforms like GrowTherapy, Amazon, Headway, and Talkspace want to own your digital real estate and make you reliant on them. We want to teach you how to own your own professional identity-and give yourself professional flexibility whether you temporarily use a service like this or not.
Joining us is Saroosh Kahn, CTO of Allia. I met Saroosh over a shared sense of helping keep therapists independent, and I can't wait for him to help us navigate this.

For years, "Occupational Therapy in Primary Care" has felt like a professional aspiration-a "gold standard" we discussed in classrooms but rarely saw in job postings. Today, that reality is shifting. Following the 2020 statutory mandates in Norway and Sweden that solidified OT as a required primary care service, the global tide is turning.
In the United States, we are moving past the era of mere "co-location" toward true interprofessional integration. Driven by the rise of Alternative Payment Models (APMs) and the 2026 Medicare updates to Advanced Primary Care Management, the door is finally opening for OTs to lead in chronic disease management, mental health, and aging-in-place.
On today's episode, we sit down with Dr. Ashley Halle, a leading voice in this movement and co-author of the foundational AJOT research on the topic, to discuss how clinicians can finally step out of the "hypothetical" and onto the primary care team.

Thumb osteoarthritis is a common condition in older adults. By age 50, the prevalence is about 8% in men and 25% in women-and it increases with age, with meta-analysis data suggesting that by age 80, approximately 39% of women have radiographic signs of thumb base OA.
Conservative treatment is widely acknowledged as first-line care for thumb CMC OA, including occupational and physical therapy, particularly to help initiate splinting and exercise programs.
With conservative treatment roughly 4 out of 5 cases can be managed successfully without surgery.
Given the relatively high prevalence and importance of conservative intervention, it is critical that even generalist OTs be aware of its presentation and the basics of assessment and treatment.
This course intends to do just that: equip the generalist therapist to watch for, assess, and treat thumb OA-and perhaps most importantly, know when to refer on. We'll be joined by hand therapist Preston Lockwood.

The landscape of healthcare has been changed forever with the introduction of AI.
Already, 1 in 3 adults are turning to chatbots to ask health related questions. For younger adults under age 30, the shift is even faster-nearly 30% now use AI specifically for mental health and emotional support.
Amid these broad changes is a specific question for us as therapists:
What happens when the chatbot starts to play the role of therapist?
This service is already being offered by tools - like Abby - "Your AI Therapist."
This raises so many questions for us-and at the heart of the questions is a moral and ethical one of turning our trust from individual humans to LLMs. Today, we'll walk through the broad ethical considerations with Megan Cornish is a licensed clinical social worker turned strategist who builds and scales ethical mental health brands.
We'll discuss the ethics of this shift-and what our ethical duty is to respond, particularly in our day to day sessions with clients, who are likely beginning to use AI.
Not to be dramatic: but this is the conversation of our generation.
This course was designed to help you meet your ethics requirements for your CE.

The landscape of private practice changed forever this year. With Amazon officially adding physical therapy to its marketplace, accessing rehabilitation services is now as easy as ordering a pair of shoes. This shift signifies a massive rise in public awareness of therapy services-but it also brings a new set of challenges for the independent practitioner.
How do you compete with a global giant? How do you meet the "one-click" expectations of modern clients?
In our 2026 "Starting an OT Practice" course, we dive into the complexities of launching and sustaining a practice in this high-tech, high-convenience era. We'll discuss why easy onboarding is no longer optional, how to leverage the latest AI tools to provide world-class care while run a lean and professional business, and how to position your clinical expertise as a high-value alternative to corporate healthcare.
We are joined by Christopher Gaskins PhD, OTR/L, CSRS, who recently made the leap from "side-hustle" to full-time practice owner. Chris shares his raw, first-hand experience of navigating the ups and downs of launching in this current market, offering a roadmap for OTs who are ready to bet on themselves.

While the landscape of healthcare is shifting beneath our feet, the most tangible change in daily practice since the arrival of AI has been our documentation.
Over the past two years, we have moved beyond the initial excitement of AI scribes and chat interfaces. As we look ahead to Therapy Documentation in 2026, the conversation is shifting from âhow do we save time?â to âhow can data and analytics help us in real-time?â We are entering an era where documentation is no longer a static record of the past, but a dynamic tool that augments our clinical reasoning and patient care.
We are thrilled to welcome to the podcast Pedro Teixeira, MD, PhD. Dr. Teixeira is the co-founder of PredictionHealth (now part of Prompt Health) and a leading expert in using biomedical informatics to bring intelligent automation into the rehab workflow.

There is a foundational skillset essential to occupational therapy that often isn't covered in school: The ability to design a 60-minute session that is both clinically transformative and operationally sound.
Bridging the gap between high-level evidence-like task-specific practice for stroke recovery-and the realities of billing codes and patient engagement is no small feat. It is this specific ability to structure "best practice" into a seamless, hour-long experience that separates the master clinician from the novice.
In this 1 hour course, we sit down with Rachel Egan, OTR/L, CHT, COMT, a master clinician and rehab manager who understands this complexity firsthand. As an operational leader at NovaCare overseeing 13 clinics, Rachel balances the dual demands of high-quality patient care and administrative excellence.
