About the role

Make a Bigger Impact. Practice the Way You Were Trained. If you're looking for a part-time Occupational Therapist role where you can collaborate with an interdisciplinary team, build meaningful relationships with families, and practice evidence-based, play-centered therapy, we'd love to meet you. At Cortica, we believe every child deserves care that sees the whole person—not just a diagnosis. Our Occupational Therapists work alongside Speech-Language Pathologists, Behavior Analysts, Physicians, Mental Health Clinicians, and other specialists to create truly integrated treatment plans that help children thrive. Why Cortica? Our mission is simple: to design and deliver life-changing care—one child, one family, and one community at a time. We foster a collaborative, inclusive culture where clinicians are empowered to learn, innovate, and make a lasting impact. Every discipline has a voice, every teammate is valued, and every child receives care tailored to their unique strengths. If you're looking for a place where you can grow professionally while making a meaningful difference every day, we'd love to connect with you.
