About Children's Therapy Center Children's Therapy Center is a pediatric occupational therapy practice serving children and families in Carmel and San Jose, California. We provide neurodiversity-affirming occupational therapy that supports sensory processing, emotional regulation, executive functioning, motor development, feeding, self-care, social participation, and family well-being. We believe pediatric occupational therapy is about understanding children, not changing who they are. The children who come to us are often described as "challenging," "sensitive," "rigid," "distracted," "behavioral," or "picky." Our job is to look deeper. We ask: What is this child communicating? What is their nervous system experiencing? What strengths are being overlooked? How can we support participation without asking them to become someone they're not? Our work is grounded in relationships, nervous system regulation, sensory processing, development, attachment, family collaboration, and neurodiversity-affirming practice. What You'll Do As a pediatric occupational therapist at Children's Therapy Center, you'll: Evaluate and treat infants, toddlers, children, and adolescents in our outpatient pediatric clinic Partner closely with families through ongoing parent coaching and education Develop individualized treatment plans that honor each child's strengths and unique needs Collaborate with an experienced team of pediatric occupational therapists Participate in mentorship, case discussions, and continuing education Help create meaningful, engaging therapy experiences that support participation in everyday life What Working Here Actually Looks Like You'll have time to think. Time to collaborate. Time to learn. You'll be surrounded by coworkers who genuinely enjoy discussing sensory processing, neurodiversity, development, attachment, co-regulation, executive functioning, and all the wonderfully complex things that make children human. You'll never be expected to know everything. Questions are welcomed. Mentorship is part of our culture. Clinical reasoning is something we build together. You'll work with families who are looking for understanding, partnership, and meaningful support—not quick fixes. Who Thrives Here The therapists who thrive here are often: Deeply curious Reflective Relationship-focused Excited by complex clinical reasoning Passionate about understanding behavior through a developmental and nervous system lens Committed to neurodiversity-affirming practice They're often the therapists who found themselves asking bigger questions after graduate school.
