Job Description

Make a Bigger Impact. Practice the Way You Were Trained.

If you're looking for a pediatric OT role where you can collaborate with an interdisciplinary team, build meaningful relationships with families, and practice evidence-based, play-centered therapy, we'd love to meet you.

At  Cortica , we believe every child deserves care that sees the whole person—not just a diagnosis. Our Occupational Therapists work alongside Speech-Language Pathologists, Behavior Analysts, Physicians, Mental Health Clinicians, and other specialists to create truly integrated treatment plans that help children thrive.

Why OTs Choose Cortica
  • Competitive salary: $83,288–$104,111
  • Collaborative multidisciplinary care model
  • Play-based, neurodiversity-affirming approach
  • Opportunities for co-treatment with multiple disciplines
  • Clinical autonomy backed by a supportive team
  • Continuing education and professional development support
  • Career growth within a rapidly expanding organization
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits
  • 401(k) with company match and rapid vesting
  • Paid holidays, wellness days, PTO, and referral bonuses
What You'll Do

As an Occupational Therapist at Cortica, you'll help children build meaningful life skills through individualized, engaging therapy.

You'll:

  • Complete comprehensive occupational therapy evaluations using standardized and dynamic assessments
  • Develop individualized treatment plans that reflect each child's strengths, interests, and goals
  • Deliver engaging, play-based therapy focused on sensory processing, emotional regulation, fine motor development, self-care skills, and participation in daily activities
  • Collaborate closely with families and an interdisciplinary clinical team to provide integrated care
  • Participate in co-treatment sessions when clinically appropriate
  • Educate caregivers with practical home strategies that support continued progress
  • Maintain documentation and billing that supports high-quality care
  • Contribute ideas that help strengthen and grow our clinical programs

Our productivity expectation is 26 direct patient care hours per week , allowing dedicated time for documentation, collaboration, training, and team meetings.

We're Looking For
  • Current California Occupational Therapy License
  • Master's degree in Occupational Therapy
  • Passion for working with children and their families
  • Interest in interdisciplinary collaboration
  • Growth mindset and eagerness to learn
  • Experience with pediatric therapy preferred, but clinicians with strong pediatric foundations are encouraged to apply
Why Cortica?

Our mission is simple:  to design and deliver life-changing care—one child, one family, and one community at a time.

We foster a collaborative, inclusive culture where clinicians are empowered to learn, innovate, and make a lasting impact. Every discipline has a voice, every teammate is valued, and every child receives care tailored to their unique strengths.

If you're looking for a place where you can grow professionally while making a meaningful difference every day, we'd love to connect with you.
