Area of Science:

  • Occupational therapy
  • Mental health rehabilitation
  • Creative arts therapies

Background:

  • Creative activities as intervention (CaI) are integral to mental health recovery and occupational therapy.
  • Limited research exists on occupational therapists' reasoning and tacit knowledge regarding CaI.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore occupational therapists' reasoning, rationale, and motives in co-creating a model for CaI in mental health.
  • To develop the CreActivity model for CaI resource in mental health rehabilitation.

Main Methods:

  • Employed co-operative inquiry and narrative theory for methodology.
  • Utilized ethnographic methods and narrative analysis of data from eight occupational therapists.
  • Conducted seven co-operative inquiry group meetings.

Main Results:

  • Occupational therapists' reasoning for CaI involves building relationships and facilitating activity.
  • Creative activities were used to find 'cracks' and bridge action with past/future narratives for engagement.
  • CaI fostered reflection, development, and empowerment in mental health rehabilitation.

Conclusions:

  • Identifying narrative layers in therapists' reasoning supports CaI implementation.
  • This understanding can enhance occupational therapists' use of CaI for improved mental health outcomes.
  • The CreActivity model offers a resource for CaI in mental health settings.
