Shape Recoveries and Rediscover Purpose as an Occupational Therapist in the Mile High City

 

Overview

 

Are you a dedicated Occupational Therapist who believes that restoring independence is one of the most powerful things a clinician can do? If you're searching for a role that challenges your skills, elevates your career, and places you in one of the most energetic and livable cities in the American West, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.

 

We're on the lookout for a full-time, licensed OTR/L to join a therapy team that leads with empathy, leans into innovation, and never loses sight of the human being at the center of every treatment plan. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or a newly certified professional ready to hit the ground running, you'll find a home here — one where your talent is recognized and your contribution is felt.

 

Job Description

  • Design Individualized Care Plans: Conduct comprehensive assessments and craft personalized occupational therapy programs aligned with each patient's functional goals and lifestyle needs
  • Deliver Evidence-Based Interventions: Apply current, research-supported techniques to improve patients' motor function, cognitive ability, and performance in activities of daily living
  • Collaborate Across Disciplines: Partner with physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, physicians, nurses, and social workers to deliver whole-person, integrated care
  • Educate and Empower: Guide patients and their support networks through therapeutic strategies that reinforce progress beyond the clinical setting
  • Track and Refine Outcomes: Maintain thorough, accurate documentation and continuously evaluate patient progress to adapt treatment approaches as needed

 

Education

  • Degree in Occupational Therapy from an accredited program
  • Post-graduate certifications and continuing education are actively encouraged and supported

 

Certifications

  • Active Occupational Therapist (OTR/L) licensure in good standing
  • NBCOT (National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy) certification required

 

Skills

  • Genuine passion for helping others reclaim independence and quality of life
  • Strong interpersonal skills with an ability to communicate compassionately and clearly
  • Creative problem-solving and flexibility when addressing a diverse range of patient presentations
  • Comfort and confidence working within a collaborative, multidisciplinary team structure

 

Benefits

  • Full-time schedule with shift flexibility to support work-life balance
  • Mentorship pathways and robust career development resources
  • Access to advanced clinical tools, modern facilities, and streamlined documentation platforms
  • Opportunities to contribute to quality improvement and forward-thinking clinical initiatives
  • A team culture built on mutual respect, shared wins, and professional growth

 

What You'll Be Doing

 

This role is about far more than charting progress notes and running through therapy protocols. Every session you lead is a chance to help someone reclaim a piece of their life — the ability to button a shirt, prepare a meal, hold a grandchild, or return to a job they love. You'll work with patients navigating recovery from neurological events, orthopedic procedures, chronic conditions, and more, tailoring each approach to the individual in front of you.

 

You'll bring creativity and clinical precision to every encounter, designing therapy experiences that feel less like appointments and more like milestones. And you won't be doing it alone. You'll be surrounded by a team of therapists, physicians, nurses, and care coordinators who are just as committed to the craft and to each other as you are.

 

Why You'll Love the Team — and the City That Inspires You

 

The culture we've cultivated within our rehab team is something genuinely rare. Collaboration isn't a buzzword here — it's the foundation everything is built on. You'll have colleagues who push you to grow, celebrate your milestones, and show up for you the way you show up for your patients. Your ideas will be heard. Your development will be invested in. Your work will mean something.

 

And beyond the clinic walls, Denver, Colorado offers a quality of life that is almost unfairly good. Sitting at the base of the Rocky Mountains with over 300 days of sunshine annually, Denver is a city that constantly earns its reputation as one of the most sought-after places to live in the country. Whether you're a weekend warrior hitting the ski slopes, a trail runner tracing paths through Red Rocks, or someone who simply loves ending the workday with a cold craft beer on a rooftop with a mountain backdrop — this city delivers.

 

Denver's neighborhoods are as varied as its residents. From the walkable, art-filled streets of RiNo and the boutique-lined corridors of Cherry Creek, to the family-friendly energy of Wash Park and the indie coffee culture of Capitol Hill, there's a corner of this city that will feel like it was made for you. The culinary scene rivals major coastal metros, with James Beard-recognized chefs, farm-to-table staples, and a thriving food hall culture that makes every meal an event. And the city's deep commitment to outdoor access, sustainability, and community means you'll feel rooted here in all the right ways.

 

Who We're Looking For

 

We want someone who didn't choose occupational therapy by accident. Someone who feels it — the weight and reward of helping a person regain what they thought they'd lost. You understand that progress isn't always linear, and you meet patients with patience and persistence through every plateau and breakthrough alike.

 

You bring expertise to the table, but also humility. You're curious enough to keep learning and confident enough to lead. If the idea of combining a deeply meaningful clinical practice with life in one of the West's most vibrant cities gets you excited, you belong on this team.

 

Your Next Chapter Starts Here

 

This is more than a career move — it's an invitation to plant roots in a community that values both excellence and authenticity, and to do clinical work that genuinely changes lives. Denver is calling, and so are we.

 

If you're ready to bring your best to a team that brings theirs every single day, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today and let's build something worth talking about.
