Occupational Therapist

We are looking for a client-centered, occupation-based, trauma-responsive, neurodiversity affirming, and culturally sensitive individual to join the Common Threads Family Resource Center team as an Occupational Therapist. Common Threads is a mid-sized nonprofit agency located on Madison’s East side. Our mission is to empower autistics, other neurodivergents, and anyone who experiences mental health needs and sensory differences by providing meaningful, comprehensive support. We accomplish this by offering a variety of evidence-based, personalized therapeutic and educational services built on an individual's strengths, goals, and community. We believe in the inherent worth of every client and we embrace all families who seek out our agency. We partner together, with dedicated and compassionate services and support, to help facilitate growth and development. It is our privilege to be of service. But, Common Threads is more than the services we provide. Our current team consists of individuals with a wide variety of training backgrounds, life experiences, work styles, and interest areas. We genuinely care about our clinicians’ journeys and actively support the personal and professional growth of our team. We lift each other up, help each other grow through our experiences, and push each other to provide the best services possible to our clients every day. We value the diverse perspectives of our teammates and prioritize collaboration as a means to elevate the impact of our work. Our team is looking for clinicians who are flexible, patient, playful, and creative. We have a preference for clinicians who are comfortable working with younger children. Clinicians at Common Threads experience improved work life balance via freedom to create their own schedules, customize their caseloads based on their individual needs, and develop their unique therapeutic styles to reach clients. Common Threads provides supervision, mentorship, professional development opportunities, and in-house administrative, scheduling, and billing support. Full-time employees are eligible for health, dental, and vision insurance, a professional development stipend, 5 weeks of PTO per calendar year, and a retirement account with up to a 3% employer match.
