Journey as an Occupational Therapist & Irlen Diagnostician

Welcome to Students in CHRG! In this episode, we’re talking with Shoshana Shamberg about her experience as an occupational therapist and as an Irlen Diagnostician! In this podcast we aimed to bring insight into the role of occupational therapy within this specialized field, and gain a better understanding of our OT’s journey with Irlen Syndrome, and her incredible stories that got her to where she is now!
