Therapeutic Recreation
WHAT IS THERAPEUTIC RECREATION?
Therapeutic Recreation is the use of recreation or activity-based interventions to
address the assessed needs of an individual as a means to wellbeing. Using a
strengths-based approach, a certified therapeutic recreation specialist (CTRS) will
conduct an assessment, and work with each individual to develop individualized
goals and objectives to assist the individual on a pathway to wellbeing.

inclusive program for people of all ages and abilities. Therapeutic Recreation can
assist individuals with a variety of goals, from increasing confidence and building
independence to improving fine motor skills.

budget. Costs are as follows:
Intake Session: $125.00 (one hour)
