Occupational Therapist

Overview

Love working with kids? Want a team that has your back?

At Specialized Speech Center, we believe great therapy happens when therapists are supported, respected, and given time to do their best work. We’re a family-focused pediatric practice serving children across South Florida. We’re growing, and we’re looking for an Occupational Therapist to help build our Miami Gardens team.

This isn’t a high-volume mill. It’s a place where you’ll get to know your kids, celebrate their wins with their families, and work side by side with speech-language pathologists who care about the whole child.

Why you’ll love it here

• Competitive pay:
• Flexibility: [Set your own schedule / after-school hours / part-time and full-time options]
• A real team: OTs and SLPs collaborate on shared caseloads, so you’re never working in a silo
• Mentorship: New grads and therapists new to pediatrics get hands-on clinical guidance from experienced clinicians
• Growth: [CEU support / opportunities to grow into a lead or supervisory role]
• Steady caseload: [Established referral base, so your schedule fills quickly]

What you’ll do

• Evaluate and treat children with a range of needs: fine motor, visual-motor, sensory processing, self-care, and feeding
• Build creative, play-based treatment plans that make therapy fun
• Partner with families so progress carries over at home
• Collaborate with SLPs, physicians, and school teams
• Document clearly and on time (we’ll train you on our Medicaid and managed care documentation standards)

What you’ll bring

• Florida OT license (OTR/L), or license-eligible
• Master’s or Doctorate in Occupational Therapy (ACOTE-accredited)
• NPI number
• A genuine love of working with kids
• Pediatric experience is a plus, but new graduates are encouraged to apply
