About The Position

Let’s be real: not all therapy companies are created equal. Some places give you a title and a caseload. At North Shore Pediatric Therapy, you get something different: a career you’re proud to talk about because you can point to the kids who are speaking their first words, eating family meals for the first time, or finally thriving in a classroom because of the work you and your team led. We’re the kind of company where: You’ll actually feel good wearing the swag, because it represents a place that values assent-based, ethical care and backs clinicians with real resources. Unlike most providers, our centers practice true interdisciplinary care. BCBAs, SLPs, OTs, PTs, neuropsychologists, and mental health providers work side by side, often co-treating, so kids get support that reflects the whole picture of who they are. When someone asks, “So what do you do?” you won’t just say “I’m a BCBA.” You’ll tell them you work at one of the few companies that refuses blanket 40-hour recommendations. While others default to preset buckets, we use a framework that considers diagnostic severity, adaptive functioning, age, access to other therapies, and quality of life. The result? Recommendations that are individualized, ethical, and built around the child and family in front of us. Growth isn’t a buzzword here — it’s a path. Many of our leaders, including Clinical Directors, started as BCBAs at NSPT. We’re known for giving clinicians the mentorship, training, and opportunities they need to step into leadership when they’re ready. This is an opportunity to do the best work of your career — guiding dedicated RBTs, solving meaningful clinical challenges, and impacting the lives of families every single day.
