  • B6 sneak peak - Interview with Charmaine Bernie

    This is a sneak peak at our Patreon only bonus episode where we interview Series 6's guest. Charmaine is the co-author of one of the articles we chose "A scoping review of coaching in occupational therapy: Mapping methods, populations and outcomes." See episode 20 for a full review of that article. Not only is she a researcher but she's also a great clinician and shares insightful knowledge around the topic of parent coaching with us. To become ⁠⁠a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon supporter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ just click on the link here in the show notes or go to patreon.com/researchandrealityOT. It's just $10AUD/month. In some countries, you may be able to claim this as a work related cost!
