Flow recreation therapy & consulting

Flow recreation therapy & consulting offering equal opportunities to access recreation and leisure services in the Ottawa region.

Flow recreation therapy & consulting believes in equal opportunity for meaningful recreation and leisure experiences. We work with children, teens, adults, and seniors living with a variety of different disabilities and impairments to optimize their overall health and wellness. We also provide grief and bereavement services to children (who have experienced the death of a person in their life) who would benefit for exploring and learning about their grief and emotions while learning positive coping strategies through play. We offer services in Ottawa, Orleans, Limoges, Russell, Embrun, Cornwall, Alexandria and everywhere in-between.

Executive functioning is like your brain’s “CEO” — it helps you plan, focus, remember, and manage time. When these skills are challenged, daily life can feel overwhelming.

🎯 Recreation therapy supports executive functioning through fun, goal-based activities like:
✅ Strategy games that build problem-solving
✅ Outdoor adventures that strengthen focus and flexibility
✅ Creative projects that encourage planning and follow-through

Small steps lead to big growth! 💪


💡 Therapist Tip: Activities that challenge the brain while sparking joy are powerful tools for improving executive functioning!
