Pediatric Occupational Therapist (OTR/L) – Independent Contractor

Are you looking for a pediatric OT setting where therapy is more than completing activities or checking boxes?

SenseAbilities is seeking an Occupational Therapist who values relationship-based, evidence-informed practice and wants to continually strengthen their clinical reasoning while helping children build meaningful, functional skills.

At SIS, we believe effective pediatric OT begins with understanding what is driving a child’s challenges. Our therapists look beyond surface-level performance to consider sensory processing, regulation, postural and neuromotor foundations, praxis, motor coordination, visual-motor development, engagement, and participation.

SenseAbilities is a pediatric occupational therapy clinic providing relationship-based, evidence-informed care to help children develop the sensory-motor, developmental, and functional foundations needed for greater independence and meaningful participation at home, school, and in the community.

If you are looking for a pediatric practice where clinical reasoning, relationships, professional growth, and individualized care matter, we would love to hear from you.

Relationship-Based Care

We prioritize connection, emotional safety, engagement, and the therapeutic relationship as foundations for learning and development.

Evidence-Informed Clinical Practice

Intervention is grounded in occupational therapy principles, neurodevelopmental foundations, sensory integration, motor learning, developmental science, and individualized clinical reasoning—not a one-size-fits-all treatment approach.

Strong Clinical Mentorship & Collaboration

SIS is designed to support therapists in becoming stronger clinicians. Our team collaborates on complex cases, clinical observations, treatment planning, goal development, and progression of intervention.

Advanced Pediatric Perspective

Our clinical approach is influenced by specialized training and frameworks including Ayres Sensory Integration®, DIR/Floortime, sensory processing, neuromotor development, praxis, postural control, fine and visual-motor development, and functional participation.

Individualized Treatment

Therapists have the opportunity to understand each child's developmental profile and adjust sensory-motor input, environmental supports, task demands, and therapeutic strategies based on the child's response.

Meaningful Outcomes

We focus on helping children translate underlying developmental gains into improved participation in real life—play, self-care, school activities, peer interaction, motor activities, and family routines.

• Enjoy working with children and families and want to specialize in pediatrics

• Value relationship-based, child-responsive intervention

• Are curious about the why behind a child's performance

• Want to strengthen your clinical reasoning rather than simply follow predetermined activities

• Are interested in sensory integration, regulation, praxis, motor development, fine motor, visual-motor, and functional skills

• Welcome collaboration, feedback, and continued professional growth

• Can balance child-led engagement with purposeful, therapist-directed intervention

• Value thorough documentation and measurable functional outcomes

• Are dependable, organized, communicative, and committed to continuity of care

Experienced pediatric OTs are encouraged to apply, and new graduates with a strong interest in pediatric occupational therapy are welcome. We particularly value therapists who demonstrate curiosity, initiative, strong interpersonal skills, and a desire to continue developing their pediatric clinical expertise.
