Doctoral Capstone Project: Aquatic Therapy
I began this project by researching the effects of aquatic occupational therapy on sensory processing abilities for children who are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. This project led me to cover a new gap centering around OT aquatic therapy education and a lack of awareness. I was able to complete my capstone project from January-April of 2026. This is the link to the presentation and handout created surrounding my research and findings.
