ALL ABOUT US
Functional therapy with grit
Grit: perseverance and passion for a meaningful goal
Bright Balanced Therapy, LLC was founded in 2020 by Willa Bonzi, an occupational therapist and nutritionist who loves to help people turn challenges into opportunities.
Occupational therapy helps people with health conditions participate in daily life to the fullest (and is an evidence-based, board-certified healthcare profession). Occupations are whatever "occupies" one's time such as bathing, dressing, eating, playing, sleeping, social and leisure participation, mobility, managing home/finances/work and other activities that are meaningful. An OT is a guide to helping individuals determine health and life goals and then helping them to be achieved through physical and behavioral health treatment/interventions, adaptations/modifications to the task or environment, technologies and equipment.
Willa's background as an OT includes home health and hospice, rehabilitation in skilled nursing, hospital-based acute and critical care, outpatient pediatric therapy, home-based and nature-based pediatric therapy, early intervention, nonprofit programs for community reintegration. Before becoming an OT, Willa was a job coach and adaptive ski instructor.
