Meet Simarpreet Pattar, our new Occupational Therapist at This World's Ours Centre.
Hi! I’m Simarpreet (or Sim), an occupational therapist in mental health. I completed my Masters in Science Applied (Occupational Therapy) at McGill, and also hold a Bachelor’s in Science in Behavioural Neuroscience. I have also completed training in Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, eating disorders treatment, functional cognition, cognitive rehabilitation, ADHD strategies for adults, exposure therapy for anxiety disorders, and trauma informed care.
I have experience in both the public and private sectors, focusing on complex mood and anxiety disorders, eating disorders, ADHD, and Autism. I also work with people who have no diagnosis but just want some support in better managing their day to day activities and demands! I work with all ages, from preschoolers to parents (and grandparents!) and strive to keep my practice strengths-based, neurodiversity affirming, and - most importantly - FUN!
I'm inspired by the moment it "clicks" for a client, and a strategy works. I love seeing improvements over time, no matter how big or small, and watching someone accomplish a goal for the first time. Occupational therapy is such a rewarding career, and it is incredibly gratifying to be a part of someone's journey in achieving what matters most to them!
I currently offer in-clinic, virtual, and home/community-based sessions. If you’d like more information, or to set up a consultation call, you can email me at simarpreet.pattar@gmail.com.
