Speech-Language Pathologist – Colorado (Part-Time, Remote) – 2026–27

Parallel

5d • Remote

About The Position

Parallel is hiring a Colorado-licensed Speech-Language Pathologist for a remote, part-time assignment with a long-standing K–12 school partner. The role provides 24 hours of work per week from December 1, 2026, through May 21, 2027, delivering direct speech therapy to 16 students ages 5–20 with mild to moderate needs and supervising SLPAs serving 32 students. The schedule is between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Mountain Time. Because most direct-therapy students attend a four-day-week district with no school on Mondays, consistent Tuesday-through-Friday availability is essential; the established schedule allows some flexibility.

The clinician will provide virtual, student-centered, IEP-aligned therapy; supervise SLPAs according to Colorado requirements; collaborate with school teams and Parallel clinicians; and monitor and report on student progress. This is a 1099 independent-contractor position. Compensation starts at $54 per hour and varies by state and experience.

Parallel describes itself as a tech-forward provider of care for learning and thinking differences, connecting students with qualified professionals through a single platform. Its services include psychological assessment, counseling, speech-language services, and special education. The company emphasizes clinician support through assignment matching, administrative tools, billing and operational systems, clinical resources, opportunities to provide feedback, provider meetings, office hours, and continuing education. Parallel also states its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion and to equal opportunity.
