About Bayanihan

At Bayanihan Therapy Services, we envision a world where every person continues to experience life to their liking, has something to wake up for, and has the tools & coping mechanisms to deal with its difficulties.

We provide occupational therapy services, dementia care education, and counselling services for carers, families, support network, and kin of people experiencing brain changes and dementia symptoms. We would like carers to feel supported, heard, and informed as they care for their loved ones in a safe, meaningful, joyful and loving manner.

The Canadian Practice Process Framework

The Canadian Practice Process Framework (CPPF) involves 8 steps that can be linear or non-linear depending on the context:

  1. Enter / Initiate

  2. Set the stage

  3. Assess / Evaluate

  4. Agree on objectives or plan

  5. Implement the plan

  6. Monitor or modify the plan

  7. Evaluate outcome

  8. Conclude / Exit

Before we enter a therapeutic relationship, we will pick a frame of reference while considering the broader societal context and our practice context. A therapist must take the time to go through the whole CPPF process, to help establish professional boundaries and therapeutic rapport. In our ever-changing global, political, social, academic, health, education, and economic climate, your occupational therapist must have a holistic view of health and must collaborate with you.
