Recreational Therapist | The Retreat at Sheppard Pratt

Recreational Therapist

Leisure and wellness go hand in hand. Often times, when one experiences effects of mental illness, their leisure lifestyle deteriorates. The Retreat provides weekly individual sessions with a Recreational Therapist to help our residents learn the skills needed to fill their free time with meaningful and therapeutic activity. We also use recreation to help residents gain insight into their treatment and themselves. Leisure is necessary for balance in life, and can have many benefits such as establishing a sense of identity, improving self esteem, providing a sense of relaxation, providing opportunities for social interaction, and mood improvement, among others. Teresa Marvel, CTRS is The Retreat’s full time Recreational Therapist.
