As such, we focus on how to maximize independent leisure functioning as part of the overall human experience. One task that many TR practitioners must address is that of overcoming barriers to leisure participation. Common barriers include, accessibility, lack of leisure skills, lack of time, financial difficulties, and lack of understanding of the value of leisure among others. One barrier that can be more difficult to identify and can impact all aspects of recovery including leisure engagement is fear. We need to make sure that when conducting assessments, we explore all perceived and real barriers, including fear. It is also crucial that programs are developed so that addressing fear can be included in a variety of interventions. Fear can be a hindrance to recovery and without helping clients overcome this fear, we may be unable to help them achieve maximum leisure functioning.
