The Michigan Occupational Therapy Association welcomes all therapists, assistants, students, and educators in the profession of occupational therapy to explore and enjoy this website.  Patients and their family members and advocates will find information about how the OT practitioners across the state can help them to participate fully and perform at the highest level within their personal life roles...truly living life to it's fullest! As you use this site you will note that some areas are for members only.  We wish to thank those members who have demonstrated their support for their profession and this association, which is the Voice of OT within the state of Michigan. We hope that those who have not yet joined will take this opportunity to become a member of MiOTA.    MiOTA is a voluntary professional association of occupational therapy practitioners who are dedicated to supporting the profession through advocacy and communication.

My name is Kali Cuthbertson and I am an Occupational Therapist at Heartland Healthcare Center in Sterling Heights. I completed my undergraduate work at Hope College in Holland, MI in 2014 and received my Master of Occupational Therapy from Midwestern University in Downers Grove, IL in December of 2016. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, family and friends, and at my church. It has been a dream of mine since middle school to be an occupational therapist, and I Iove that every day I get to lead patients towards independence in meaningful occupations!

When I went to the MIOTA conference in October of 2018, I was excited to grow and learn about topics so I can be a better clinician. I met some ​great occupational therapists during the conference and learned a lot, including community resources I can share with my patients. I am a MiOTA member to stay proactive in occupational therapy practice, learn about current legislation topics, promote this amazing profession, and network with other therapists.
