Industry UsageHealth, wellness, personal developmentEducation, public and private schools

Neurodivergent Coaches focus on personalized coaching to support individuals with neurodiversity, often outside traditional educational settings. Special Education Teachers work within schools to develop and implement educational plans for students with special needs. While both roles support neurodiverse individuals, coaches emphasize personal growth and skill development, whereas teachers focus on academic progress within a classroom environment.

Are neurodivergent coaches in demand?

The role often requires certifications in coaching and understanding neurodivergent conditions, with opportunities available in private practice, educational settings, and corporate environments.

How much do neurodivergent coaches make?

Neurodivergent coaches typically earn between $30,000 and $70,000 annually, depending on experience, certifications, and client base. Many work as independent contractors or in private practice, setting their own rates and schedules.

What qualifications do I need to be a neurodivergent coach?

Neurodivergent coaches typically need relevant training in coaching methods, such as certification from organizations like the International Coach Federation (ICF), and a strong understanding of neurodiversity. While formal degrees are not always required, experience working with neurodivergent individuals and skills in communication, empathy, and active listening are essential.

Job description

Description:

$23–$25/hour | Full-Time, Part-Time & Per Diem | Petaluma, CA
Day, Evening, Overnight & Weekend Shifts | Shift Differentials Available

About the Role:

Support adolescents ages 12–17 in one of Muir Wood's residential mental health programs—either our girls' mental health program, where approximately one-third of residents are neurodivergent, or our specialized boys' neurodivergent mental health program.

You'll work alongside therapists and licensed clinicians, providing daily therapeutic support, skills coaching, and supervision. No medical or clinical license required—we provide full training.

Our residents include teens with anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, and emotional dysregulation. Our program is designed to support their unique strengths within a structured, affirming environment.

Why Join Us:

  • Direct care role—not a clinical or medical technician position
  • Specialized program supporting neurodivergent teens
  • Full training provided—no prior experience needed
  • Gain experience toward careers in mental health, counseling, social work, or education
  • Work alongside therapists, psychiatrists, nurses, and experienced clinicians

What You'll Do:

  • Provide therapeutic support and skills coaching under direction of licensed clinicians
  • Support teens through daily routines: meals, hygiene, recreation, and structured activities
  • Build therapeutic relationships while maintaining healthy, appropriate boundaries
  • Monitor client safety and provide one-on-one observation when clinically indicated
  • Respond to behavioral and emotional crises using de-escalation techniques
  • Communicate with clinical staff about resident progress during shift handoffs
  • Transport clients to appointments and activities (clean CA license required)
  • Complete accurate, timely documentation per program requirements
Requirements:

What We're Looking For:

Must Have:

  • High school diploma or GED
  • Valid CA driver's license with clean record
  • First Aid/CPR certified (or willing to obtain)
  • Calm, patient, and reliable—teens depend on consistent support

Preferred:

  • Coursework or degree in psychology, social work, counseling, education, OT, SLP, or related field
  • Experience with autistic teens, ADHD, sensory processing differences, or neurodivergent populations
  • Background in special education, residential treatment, or youth programs
  • Knowledge of trauma-informed care or adolescent development

About Muir Wood:
We provide trauma-informed, relationship-centered residential treatment for teens ages 12–17. Our neurodivergent program offers a structured, affirming environment where teens can build on their unique strengths—guided by a compassionate team of clinicians, educators, and direct care staff.

Muir Wood Teen Treatment is an Equal Opportunity Employer. LiveScan background check required.
