Role Description You became an OT to do therapy. Then somewhere along the way the job became paperwork, productivity quotas, a caseload nobody could actually serve well, and a to-do list that followed you home. We're offering the opposite of that. Twenty hours a week. Real clinical work with kids who need you. And a paycheck that respects your license: $58 to $65 an hour, depending on experience. This is a part-time role on purpose. Maybe you're semi-retired and not done doing the work you're good at. Maybe you've got young kids of your own and full-time isn't the season you're in. Maybe you're in a clinic grind and want a foothold in school-based work without giving up your whole week. Whatever brought you here, twenty focused hours is a real job to us, not a leftover. What you'd do: - Work with autistic students across our Lilac Learning Center program. - Evaluations, treatment, the OT work itself. - Focus on therapy time, not logistics. Where: Remote in Washington or with a Washington License. The pay, in the open: - $58 to $65 per hour. - Washington requires us to post the range and we think that's the right way to do it anyway. - No "competitive rate," no waiting until the offer to find out. Licensed elsewhere? - If you're a strong OT living outside Washington, talk to us. - We'll cover your Washington license-by-endorsement fees. - We'll assist you through the application on a screen share. - We'll be straight with you about how long the state takes. One honest note: - We serve autistic students, and some of the work is hard. - If that's the work you want to be doing, you'll fit here. - If you're looking for an easy twenty hours, this isn't it. Applications come to me. I read every one. I answer my own email. Company Description
