#020 - Lori Prusnek | Grief: The Loss of a Child & Mental Health


Listen Later

Lori Prusnek and her family have experienced a parent's worst fears.

Lori is a professor of Occupational Therapy. Occupational Therapy (OT) began with a primary focus on the mental health aspect and treating the whole person, but slowly lost its way. Today, OT is recognizing the vital role that mental health is in providing therapy to the whole person. 

Lori's knowledge and training were tested with the loss of their child. Through that loss, Lori has found a deeper level of care and mental health as it relates to the person as a whole--not just the physical.

Lori shares the struggles she and her family faced, and how she continues to learn the importance of seeing people from a different perspective. No one knows what others are going through and part of her message is to be compassionate and understanding.

Join my conversation with Lori and she shares this difficult story in hopes of providing comfort and healing to others.
