MEET YOUR OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST

Thoughtful support, built around you.

Hi, I’m Annika Barkman, an occupational therapist and the founder of STERK Rehab.

My approach is practical, collaborative and focused on helping people participate in the everyday activities that give life meaning. Whether you are planning for safer living at home or looking for strategies to manage the demands of daily life, we’ll start with what matters to you.

I provide mobile occupational therapy services, including in-home assessments. This allows us to look at everyday activities in the environment where they actually happen and develop recommendations that make sense for your home and routines.

THE MEANING BEHIND THE NAME

STERK means strong.

In Dutch, sterk means strong. To me, strength is not just physical. It can be the quiet perseverance it takes to keep going, adapt when life changes and take the next step forward.

It is the strength found in small, steady progress — building confidence, finding new ways to do things and moving toward a life that feels meaningful.

That is the spirit behind STERK Rehab.
