Occupational Therapy

Donald Verran, MSc OT

✨ ADHD & Autism (ages 14+) ✨ Men’s Anxiety & Depression ✨ Burnout/ Executive Function/ Cognition ✨ Sleep Issues  ✨ Productivity - Personal & Professional

Service: : Occupational Therapy is more than health care, it is wellness promotion. Is something getting in the way of doing the things you love or the things you have to do? Is poor sleep keeping you from that early morning at the gym or getting to work on time? Is anxiety preventing you from leaving the house or advancing in your career? Do you struggle to get your “To Do” list done? Do you feel in a constant state of burn out? What if you could make functional changes to your day to day life and have a life more worth living? Occupational therapy can help you in a systematic and outcome driven method. As an OT, Don works alongside you to participate in more of the activities you find meaningful.

​Approach: Whether your pain point is depression, anxiety, a feeling of being overwhelmed by life, sleep issues, executive function, or any other mental health condition, occupational therapy can help by identifying the barriers and building on your strengths and what really matters to you. With less talk and more action, Don’s approach is centred on the idea that we all have strengths to draw upon to overcome, and sometimes we just need some guidance to recognize and develop these further.

Don has worked in mental health for 10 years and his passion is working with people to live the life they want to live. In his spare time, he enjoys endurance sports, music and being outdoors with my family.

Credentials & Modalities: Don is a Registered Occupational Therapist (#AN2855) with COT BC. He has a Masters of Science, Occupational Therapy, University of Alberta (2013). He has worked in public health extensively. He is also trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Sensory Integration, Trauma Informed Practice, and Wellness Planning/Relapse Prevention.
