Abstract
Occupational therapists develop skills in therapeutic use of self through practice, supervision, feedback, and reflection. Taylor (2008) created the Intentional Relationship Model (IRM) which describes the therapeutic use of self and techniques to develop one’s skills and abilities in occupational therapy practice. This chapter provides an overview of therapeutic use of self and Taylor’s (2008) IRM in relationship to pediatric occupational therapy practice. Case examples throughout the chapter illustrate the concepts presented.
