Sally
Schultz has been the Director of the TWU – School of
Occupational Therapy (Denton-Dallas-Houston) since 2001. She
teaches primarily in the PhD program. Dr. Schultz has written
numerous publications on the Theory of Occupational Adaptation;
she is one of the founding authors. Her most recent work is in
the 11th edition of Willard & Spackman (in
press). Dr. Schultz’s practice career has been focused on
program design for chronic mental illness. However, she has more
recently been concentrating on the interface between
neuroscience and occupational therapy – in particular
interventions for stroke and TBI. She expresses a strong
commitment to the necessity of occupational therapy being a
science-driven evidence-based profession. This will be the
focus of her presentation.
