Blog 22: Mentorship

Contact Name and Mentorship Place

• Yara Leanos, Leaps & Bounds Pediatric Therapy

What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?

• I saw the differences of what makes a good therapist, a good environment for the patient (and the family), and what the treatments and goals are for different specialties compared to my old mentorship.

How has what you've done helped you to answer your EQ? Please explain.

• I got to have first hand experience with how the therapist works with the patient and how the relationship of the therapist and the patient's family is even more relevant than I thought.
