Wressle E, Samuelsson K. Barriers and bridges to client-centred occupational therapy in Sweden. Scand J Occup Ther 2004; 11: 12 Á/16. This study investigates barriers to client-centred practice and solutions to overcome these barriers as experienced by Swedish occupational therapists. A British questionnaire was translated into Swedish and completed by 97 occupational therapists. The questionnaire consists of three sections: background information; a list of barriers identified in a literature review; and a list of methods to resolve barriers. The results show that the highest ranked barrier was ''the therapist does not know enough about client-centred practice''. The highest ranked method to resolve barriers was ''management and peer support for use of clientcentred practice''. Introducing client-centred practice takes time, commitment, education, training, interview skills, discussions with colleagues, and reflection on the therapists' own attitudes.
