Soar offers strong growth, ongoing education, and a supportive culture.

Qualifications

• Master's or Doctorate Degree in Occupational Therapy from an accredited program.

• Conduct multidisciplinary assessments and develop coordinated treatment plans alongside clinicians in ABA, speech therapy, psychology, and other specialties.
• Collaborate closely with speech therapists and other clinicians, including opportunities for co-treatment and shared clinical problem-solving.
• Coach and mentor RBTs so occupational therapy goals can be reinforced throughout a child's day while supporting their own clinical growth and development.
• Monitor client progress and continually adapt treatment plans and goals based on data, clinical judgment, and each child's evolving needs.
• Partner with families to develop meaningful goals, communicate progress, and provide practical strategies they can use outside of therapy.
• Bring your OT expertise to weekly interdisciplinary care meetings, helping the team understand the whole child and build coordinated approaches to care.
