Our Life Management Series uses occupational therapy intervention, based on Lifestyle Redesign®, with the focus on helping people design their lives to be more productive, happier, and healthier. It’s a holistic approach that gives most attention to occupation, the activities with which people “occupy” themselves and are the building blocks of lifestyle (e.g., productive activity, social activity, and physical activity).

Life coaching is a way of helping people which avoids the health care system. A life coach provides guidance to improve the careers, relationships, and lives of their clients.
