About The Position

Language Link Therapy is expanding in Ocala and seeking a full-time Occupational Therapist to work with children. This position offers a redesigned pediatric therapy model where therapy is provided in locations children already frequent, such as ABA centers, private schools, and preschools.

The role is a full-time, daytime position with a consistent schedule, aiming for back-to-back sessions and a steady caseload. Therapists will primarily work with young children, generally ages 2-7, with developmental needs in a collaborative environment that integrates speech therapy with the child's overall care and educational team.
