Job Summary: Aspire Behavioral Services is seeking a compassionate and collaborative Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) for a hybrid position. Provide in-home early intervention services and in clinic therapy. In this role, you’ll have the best of both work environments -support families using a relationship-based, parent coaching model—working in the child's natural environment to build functional skills that promote independence, development, daily life participation and providing one on one services in clinic.
This is a hybrid position-it’s a chance to deliver meaningful, personalized care within the context of each family’s home and direct therapeutic services in clinic. You’ll work closely with caregivers and an interdisciplinary team to co-create solutions, celebrate progress, and empower families with strategies that work in real life.

As a COTA at Aspire, you will:
- Implement and execute established patient treatment plans under the supervision of a licensed occupational therapist.

- Develop and enhance clinical and professional skills through knowledge and professional association.
- Support and participate in department operations and development.
- Provide therapy focused on improving motor skills, sensory processing, self-help skills, and daily living activities.
- Deliver services using a parent coaching model, helping caregivers integrate strategies into everyday routines.
- Collaborate with other professionals, including Developmental Specialists, SLPs, PTs, BCBAs, and RBTs, to ensure comprehensive, coordinated care.
- Participate in continuing education and professional development activities to maintain clinical excellence and requirements.
