Restore What Matters Most as an Occupational Therapist in the Heart of the New South

 

Overview

 

Are you a dedicated Occupational Therapist who believes that helping someone button their shirt, cook their own breakfast, or hold their grandchild's hand again is nothing short of extraordinary? If you're searching for a role where your clinical skills meet genuine purpose — and where your surroundings inspire you just as much as your work does — then this opportunity in Atlanta, Georgia was made for you.

 

We're looking for a licensed OTR/L to join a passionate, people-first rehabilitation team that's as invested in your growth as it is in the patients we serve. Full-time, forward-thinking, and deeply collaborative — this is the kind of team that makes Mondays feel worthwhile.

 

Job Description

  • Design Individualized Care Plans: Evaluate each patient's unique challenges and craft targeted treatment strategies that align with their personal goals and functional needs
  • Deliver Evidence-Based Interventions: Apply proven therapeutic techniques to help patients rebuild motor function, cognitive performance, and the ability to navigate daily life with confidence
  • Champion Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Partner daily with physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, physicians, nurses, and social workers to deliver well-rounded, whole-person care
  • Empower Patients and Their Support Systems: Teach patients and their caregivers practical techniques and home strategies that extend the impact of therapy beyond the clinic walls
  • Track Progress with Precision: Maintain thorough, accurate clinical documentation, continuously assess outcomes, and refine treatment approaches to keep every patient moving forward

 

Education

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

 

Certifications

  • Current, active OTR/L licensure in the state of Georgia
  • NBCOT certification required

 

Skills

  • A genuine passion for helping others reclaim independence and rediscover quality of life
  • Strong interpersonal skills — warmth, patience, and clarity go a long way here
  • Creative clinical thinking and the ability to adapt plans across a diverse patient population
  • Comfort thriving both as a self-starter and as a contributing member of a close-knit team

 

Benefits

  • Collaborative, growth-oriented work culture that genuinely supports its clinicians
  • Full-time schedule with flexible shift options to support work-life balance
  • Clinical mentorship and structured pathways for career advancement
  • Access to modern facilities, industry-leading tools, and streamlined documentation systems
  • Opportunities to participate in quality improvement and program development initiatives

 

What You'll Be Doing

 

Your days here won't look like a checklist. They'll look like breakthroughs. You might spend a morning guiding a stroke survivor through fine motor retraining, then an afternoon helping a post-surgical patient take their first fully independent steps toward getting dressed on their own. Each session is a chapter in someone's comeback story — and you'll be the one helping them write it.

 

This is person-centered care in the truest sense. You'll design treatment plans as unique as the individuals in front of you, lean on a team that has your back, and show up every day knowing that your expertise is changing lives in measurable, meaningful ways.

 

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

 

Our rehab team is something to be proud of. We're clinicians who genuinely root for one another — sharing wins, working through challenges together, and pushing each other to be better. Your ideas are welcomed here, your professional development is taken seriously, and the difference you make is noticed and celebrated.

 

And the city you'll call home? Atlanta, Georgia is a place that earns your admiration a little more each day. A gleaming, layered metropolis anchored in Southern warmth, Atlanta is one of the most dynamic cities in the country — without ever losing its sense of community and soul. Tree-lined neighborhoods spill into buzzing restaurant corridors, where James Beard-recognized chefs serve up everything from elevated Southern fare to internationally inspired menus. The BeltLine winds through the city like a living room for its residents — joggers, cyclists, dog walkers, and weekend farmers market browsers all sharing the same beautifully reimagined green space.

 

The arts scene here punches well above its weight. The High Museum, independent galleries in Castleberry Hill, live music pouring out of Little Five Points venues — culture isn't something you have to seek out in Atlanta. It finds you. And beyond the city limits, the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains are just an hour's drive away, offering trails, waterfalls, vineyards, and the kind of weekends that reset your entire outlook.

 

Atlanta is also a city of remarkable diversity, ambition, and momentum. It's a place where tradition and innovation coexist comfortably — and where the people you meet in line at a coffee shop are just as likely to be a filmmaker as a Fortune 500 executive. If you want a city that matches your energy while also giving you room to breathe, Atlanta delivers on every count.

 

Who We're Looking For

 

We're searching for an OT who sees this profession as far more than a career path — someone for whom occupational therapy is a vocation, a philosophy, a way of showing up for people when they need it most. The candidate who thrives here brings more than credentials to the table. They bring curiosity, compassion, and a quiet determination to keep going even when progress is slow.

 

Whether you're a seasoned clinician with years of specialized experience, or a newer OTR/L ready to hit the ground running and grow fast — if you lead with heart and follow through with skill, you'll find a home on this team.

 

Step Into a Role That Reflects Who You Are

 

This is more than an open position. It's an invitation to join a team that takes care seriously, a city that takes culture seriously, and a career that takes you seriously. Atlanta is ready. The team is ready.

 

The only question is — are you?
