Help Us Build Something New\n

Adaptive Minds is expanding — and we’re looking for an exceptional Pediatric Occupational Therapist (OTR/L) to help launch and lead our new Occupational Therapy department.

\n

This isn’t just another pediatric OT position.

\n

You’ll have the opportunity to help build our OT program from the ground up , shape how services are delivered, collaborate with an established ABA clinical team, and play a meaningful role in growing the department.

\n

If you’re an experienced pediatric OT who loves working with children but is also excited by leadership, program development, and creating something new , we’d love to meet you.

\n

About Adaptive Minds\n

Adaptive Minds is a growing ABA therapy organization in Las Vegas providing evidence-based ABA therapy to children and young adults with autism and other developmental needs.

\n

Our approach is collaborative and family-centered. BCBAs, RBTs, caregivers, and other professionals work together to help each child build meaningful skills, greater independence, and confidence.

\n

As we expand into Occupational Therapy, our goal is to bring that same collaborative approach to a truly integrated pediatric therapy environment.

\n

The Opportunity\n

As our Lead Pediatric Occupational Therapist , you’ll provide direct clinical care while helping us develop and grow the OT program.

\n

You’ll have the opportunity to:

\n

\n
• Conduct pediatric OT evaluations and assessments
\n
• Develop individualized, evidence-based treatment plans
\n
• Provide therapy targeting sensory processing, fine and gross motor development, self-care, daily living, regulation, and functional independence
\n
• Collaborate closely with BCBAs and other members of the child’s clinical team
\n
• Partner with parents and caregivers to help skills carry over into everyday life
\n
• Help shape OT programming, clinical workflows, documentation standards, and best practices
\n
• Participate in the future growth and hiring of the OT team
\n
• Track outcomes and continuously improve the quality of services we provide
\n

\n

Most importantly, you’ll have a real voice in what OT at Adaptive Minds becomes.

\n

Who We’re Looking For\n

Why Adaptive Minds?\n

You won’t be walking into an empty startup and being asked to figure everything out alone.
