Which of the following is NOT a core domain of occupational therapy practice included in the exam?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is not a core domain of occupational therapy practice included in the exam. While CBT is a recognized therapeutic approach in psychology and mental health treatment, occupational therapy focuses more broadly on helping individuals achieve their daily life activities and improve their overall functioning through various means.

The core domains of occupational therapy practice emphasize the importance of understanding the client's unique needs and circumstances (client-centered practice), adhering to ethical principles in providing care and support (ethical considerations), and employing a variety of strategies to facilitate engagement in meaningful activities (intervention strategies). These domains align with the holistic approach of occupational therapy, which centers on the relationship between a person's activities, the context in which they occur, and their overall well-being. By contrast, CBT is a specific form of therapy that may be utilized by occupational therapists but is not a defining core domain of the practice itself.
