POSTED ON 10/9/2026

Come grow with us as an Occupational Therapist at Soar Autism Center. Soar provides interdisciplinary early intervention services for young children with autism, bringing together occupational therapy, speech therapy, ABA, psychology, and other specialties to support the whole child and family. Our care model incorporates the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM), a naturalistic, developmental approach designed for young children with autism.

As an Occupational Therapist, you’ll help children ages 2–6 build motor, sensory, feeding, and daily living skills in a center-based early intervention setting while collaborating closely with an interdisciplinary clinical team.

Role Details

  • Schedule: Choose between available 4x10 or 5x8 schedules, depending on location and center maturity
  • Base pay: $86,000.00 - $108,500.00/year per year
  • Bonus: Annual performance bonus potential up to $3,800, with additional compensation opportunities for achieving clinical certifications

What You’ll Do

  • Plan and deliver developmentally appropriate occupational therapy for children ages 2–6
  • Develop individualized interventions addressing fine and gross motor skills, feeding, sensory needs, and activities of daily living
  • Conduct assessments and develop coordinated treatment plans with SLPs, BCBAs, psychologists, and other clinicians
  • Integrate occupational therapy goals into Soar’s ESDM-informed approach to early intervention
  • Support children with autism through naturalistic, engaging, individualized treatment
  • Partner with families to develop meaningful goals and practical strategies they can use outside of therapy
  • Collaborate with RBTs and other clinicians so occupational therapy goals are reinforced throughout each child’s day
  • Monitor progress and adapt treatment plans based on data, clinical judgment, and each child’s needs

Qualifications

  • Master’s or Doctorate degree in Occupational Therapy, unless eligible for licensure based on a Bachelor’s degree
  • Current license to practice occupational therapy
  • Experience working with children preferred
  • Strong clinical judgment, communication, and relationship-building skills

  • 11 company holidays plus 15 additional days off
