Since 2004, we've helped over 500 families annually through evidence-based, family-centered care-and we're proud to extend that same standard of excellence through virtual therapy.

Important: Our clients are located throughout California. You must be able to work during Pacific Standard Time (PST), including after-school hours (typically 2:00-6:30 PM PST). Please confirm your time zone aligns with this need before applying.

  • Strong communication, caregiver coaching, and documentation skills

Why Join Children's Therapy Network?

  • Flexible scheduling (10-20 hours per week, part-time)
  • Paid documentation time built into your caseload
  • Continuing education support, including:
    • Free access to our nationally recognized Pediatric Telehealth Certification Course (CTN-exclusive)
    • IBCCES Autism Specialist Certification opportunity
  • Collaborative team culture-you'll never feel like you're on your own
  • Ongoing mentorship from senior therapists and clinical leadership
Your Core Responsibilities:
  • Provide high-quality teletherapy using engaging, functional interventions
  • Complete virtual evaluations and ongoing treatment plans
  • Collaborate with caregivers to support carryover and progress
  • Attend team meetings, mentorship calls, and training sessions
  • Submit all documentation within 24 hours-no exceptions
