Welcome to BEYOND Recreation Therapy. I'm Holly, a private practice Recreation Therapist and Registered Professional with Therapeutic Recreation Ontario (R/TRO). I started BEYOND Recreation Therapy to provide meaningful Recreation Therapy services to people living in my local community. Working in healthcare for over 15 years, I came to recognize the growing need to support individuals wanting to live and thrive in their own communities. I am passionate about improving quality of life for individuals through access to and participation in meaningful leisure.

 

I believe that recreation and leisure defines us, with every person having unique interests and abilities. It is my passion to empower others to live a full life despite any barrier or obstacle. I’ve come into my own love for leisure and evolved my interests over the years. I enjoy leisure for every season and will try anything once, and have enjoyed teaching myself many new skills over the years to engage my clients in their own favorite activities.

 

Everyone has something that they love to do, something that brings joy and purpose to their lives. It is my job is to find out what that is and to help my clients achieve it! The most rewarding part of being a Recreation Therapist is helping people regain the confidence and skills to ‘BE’ who they are.
