Recreational Therapy

The Recreational Therapy program at ASU is guided by a dedicated team of nationally recognized faculty and faculty associates who are deeply committed to student success. Our faculty bring a wealth of expertise across clinical practice, research, leadership, and community engagement, ensuring students are supported both in and out of the classroom. Collectively, they contribute to advancing the field through service in state and national professional organizations and innovative scholarship. Students benefit from learning with faculty whose diverse experiences span healthcare, mental and behavioral health, rehabilitation, pediatrics, inclusive recreation, adapted sports, school-based services, and community-based programs, providing the knowledge, mentorship, and inspiration needed to excel as future leaders in recreational therapy.
