*PEDIATRIC OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST (in the process of moving to a new Building)*
*Join a Practice Where You Are Known, Valued & Supported*
*Bright Start Therapy | Lewiston, Maine*
Are you an Occupational Therapist looking for more than just a job?
At Bright Start Therapy, you won't be a number in a large healthcare system. You'll become part of a locally owned, pediatric-focused practice where clinicians know one another, collaborate across disciplines, and have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with the children and families they serve.
We are growing our team and are looking for an Occupational Therapist who wants to build a rewarding career working with children while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
Why Bright Start?
*Competitive Compensation*
We recognize the value of experienced clinicians and offer competitive compensation based on education, experience, and clinical expertise.
*Pediatric-Focused Caseload*
Work with children and families across a variety of developmental and functional needs, including fine-motor skills, sensory processing, visual-motor integration, self-care, regulation, and participation in everyday activities.
*True Interdisciplinary Collaboration*
Work alongside experienced OTs and SLPs. We believe collaboration between disciplines leads to stronger outcomes for children and creates a richer clinical environment for our therapists.
*Clinic & School-Based Opportunities*
Depending on your interests and experience, opportunities may include both *clinic-based and school-based services*, allowing you to develop a varied and rewarding caseload.
*New Graduates Welcome*
Beginning your career? We welcome newer clinicians and provide a supportive environment where you can develop your clinical skills and confidence.
*Flexible Scheduling*
We understand that clinicians have lives outside of work. We work with our therapists to develop schedules that are practical and sustainable.
*❤Reasonable, Sustainable Caseloads*
Quality matters more than simply filling your schedule. We believe children receive better care when therapists have the time and support needed to provide thoughtful, individualized treatment.
*Professional Growth*
We encourage continuing education and support clinicians in developing areas of specialty that interest them.
What We Offer
✔ *Competitive Salary* – We value your education, experience, and clinical expertise.
✔ *Generous Sign-On Bonus* – We want to make your decision to join our team worthwhile.
✔ *Annual Performance Reviews* – Your growth and contributions matter.
✔ *Paid Time Off*
✔ *Paid Holidays*
✔ *Pediatric-Only Caseload* – Do what you love: work with children and families.
✔ *Clinic & School-Based Opportunities* – Build a caseload that matches your interests and strengths.
✔ *Collaborative OT/SLP Team* – Work alongside experienced pediatric clinicians and benefit from true interdisciplinary collaboration.
✔ *Mentorship & Support* – Whether you are a new graduate or an experienced OT, you'll have a team behind you.
✔ *Flexible Scheduling Options* – We recognize that flexibility matters both inside and outside of work.
✔ *Locally Owned & Clinician-Led* – Your ideas, clinical judgment, and voice matter here.
We Are Looking For an OT Who Is:
* Licensed or eligible for licensure in Maine
* Passionate about working with children
* Collaborative, dependable, and compassionate
* Interested in continued professional growth
* Comfortable working as part of a multidisciplinary team
* Committed to providing family-centered, individualized care
