Scenario 2: Client: Lily, a 13-year-old with Down syndrome (pronouns: she/her). Lily’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she sat down with her occupational therapist, Mr. Patel. She eagerly shared her goal, “Mr. Patel, I want to learn how to cook simple meals myself. My mom says it will help me when I’m older.” Mr. Patel appreciated Lily’s initiative but was unsure where to start. Teaching cooking skills to someone with unique needs like Lily requires a tailored approach. He researched adapted cooking techniques and collaborated with other therapists to create a personalized plan considering Lily’s strengths and limitations.
