Welcome to my website!

My name is Abbey Schneider and I am an Occupational Therapy Doctoral Student at Huntington University, located in Fort Wayne, IN. I created this website as part of my doctoral capstone project in my final semester of OT school (January - April 2023). I was a competitive swimmer from the age of 9 - 22 years old and swam at the University of Iowa throughout my undergraduate studies. I decided to take two of my biggest passions in life- swimming and occupational therapy- and form the foundation of my project. The overarching goal of this project was to create educational content and resources for occupational therapists to utilize to become more frequent providers of aquatic therapy services. I hope that many OTs can use this content to become more educated in this nontraditional area of practice, and continue to advocate for more OTs to practice aquatic therapy to promote optimal occupational performance among all clients.
