    School-based occupational therapist positions available in Staten Island. Start right away!

    Join a small enthusiastic group of therapists who work on a multi-disciplinary team to provide quality services. Though this is primarily a school-based OT position, we expect and train our therapists to think "out of the box" and bring private practice quality skills to the school setting. You will work in schools but not be bound by the "school therapy" mindset. If you love just sitting at a table and doing handwriting, then we are not interested. We want dynamic, enthusiastic therapists who are self-driven and independent but who want to seek mentorship to grow their therapeutic mindset and tool bag.

    As the school year advances, the caseload may also include opportunities to work in our Tribeca based sensory gym. After school home- and community-based sessions may also be available in the future in some boroughs.

    Being dually licensed for OT in NY and NJ is a bonus!
