What do you like about occupational therapy?
你喜欢作业治疗的什么?
Occupational therapy inspires me that human beings deserve to enjoy their life, including the people who are mentally and/or physically disabled due to different reasons. I am excited to be an occupational therapy practitioner and to use the knowledge and skills to help them and their family members participate in the occupations they need and want to do.
作业治疗让我意识到人们都有享受生活的权利，包括那些由于不同原因导致精神和/或躯体残障的人。我很开心能够作为一名作业治疗实践者,运用自己所学的知识和技能帮助他们以及他们的家人参与到他们需要以及想要做的作业活动中去。
What is the focus of your current residency?
你在目前的实习点主要学习/做什么?
Fortunately, I can study in two residencies at the same time. One is a research track in the Innovations in Neurodevelopmental Sensory Processing Research (Insp!re) Lab; another is a clinical track in the Momentum Pediatric Therapy Network (MPTN). In the Insp!re Lab, the focuses are to learn the basic knowledge of research like video coding, to learn the knowledge of sensory integration, especially sensory cues, and to learn the interaction between parents and children. In the MPTN, the focuses are to learn how a multidisciplinary team works in the Leaps and Bounds Program, to learn processes of social skills sessions, to learn how therapists utilizing sensory processing and sensory integration in their practice, and also to learn some basic professional skills (i.e., clinical reasoning skills, writing observation note, treatment plan).
能够同时在两个实习点学习，我感到很幸运。其中一个实习点是关于科研的叫Insp!re 实验室，另一个实习点是关于临床的叫MPTN。在Insp!re实验室，我能够学到基本的科研知识比如视频编码、学到感觉统合的知识比如感觉提示，以及学到父母和儿童是如何互动的。在MPTN，我能学到一个多学科的团队如何在学前教育（the Leaps and Bounds）工作、学到实施社交小组活动的流程、学到治疗师如何将感觉处理和感觉统合的知识运用在实践中，以及学到一些基本的专业技能（如：临床推理能力，书写观察笔记的能力以及书写治疗计划的能力）
How do you plan to advance OT in China?
你计划如何推进OT在中国的发展?
To advance OT in China, I have planned three steps. The first step is to adapt the learned knowledge such as sensory processing and sensory integration, therapeutic use of self in Chinese background, and accumulate experiences. In addition, I would also do research to fill the gaps I found during practice if possible. The second step is teaching. I would like to share my knowledge and experiences to those who are interested in sensory processing and sensory integration. The third step is advocacy. I will utilize the leadership skills to prioritize the distribution of fundings for children with special needs and also the working conditions of pediatric health professionals under the support of those who have the same goal.
为了提升中国的OT，我目前有一个三步计划。第一步是实践。目的是将学习到的感觉处理和感觉统合，治疗性自我使用的知识更好地适应中国的国情以及积累临床经验。另外，如果可以的话，我也想做科研从而填补在实践中发现的空白。第二步是教学。我想向对感觉处理和感觉统合感兴趣的人分享我的知识和经验。第三步是宣传/提倡。我将运用领导力技能以及与和我有同样目标的人合作去优化对特殊需求小朋友的基金分配，同时改善儿童医疗服务人员的工作条件。
What are your favorite occupation(s)?
你最喜欢的作业活动是什么?
My favorite occupations are cycling and road tripping. Cycling gives me a chance to explore beautiful moments in the cities that I used to ignore when commuting by the cars or buses. These moments make me feel warm and alive. Cycling also keeps me fit which helps me stay energetic and confident. Road trips give me a chance to visit all the places I am interested in and it allows me to stop at beautiful viewpoints and enjoy them without rush, which is really healing and soothing.
我最喜欢的作业活动是骑车和自驾游。骑车给予我探索城市中美丽片刻的机会。这些美丽片刻给我一种温暖和活着的感觉。另外，骑车也能使我保持健康，帮助我时刻保持能力和自信。自驾游给予我参观我感兴趣的，但是公共交通不方便抵达的地方。同时我也能在风景优美的地方驻足欣赏。这个过程对我来说非常得治愈和放松。
