It’s your time to shine.
We’re not typical, and neither are you.
You walk down the long hall with the heavy doors closing behind you.
You punch in your code and clock in for the day. More patients. More rules to follow. More unfulfillment in your job as a music/art therapist.
You became a therapist to do so much more. The creativity, talent, and joy you have to share have all been brushed aside for the sake of quotas and corporate red tape.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
We have a place for you on our team!
No red tape or corporate politics here.
We are a place that gives you the flexibility to be yourself and the fulfillment of a career where you work in a new place every day. Here, your clients are as excited to see you as you are to see them. Seeing them light up, seeing them smile, seeing them learn a new way to do something—their transformations are powerful. And you simply can’t imagine doing anything else.
