JOIN THE TEAM

You're in the right place.

We're different - but we aren't superheroes. Nobody is. We need to be supported and valued. We must find meaning in our work - on the great days, and especially on the really hard days. 

Hello Joy OT + First Steps is for providers who don't want to do this alone. Who want access to amazing resources + case consults, mentorship + connections...but even more, want to be a part of something that makes us better.

Early intervention is not a job for everyone. The ones who sign up for it - we're different. We're willing to walk into anything, accept people where they are, and look for ways to help even in the least ideal circumstances.

Evaluation templates, recommendation banks, printable handouts (and more) designed for real-life visits.

resources

1:1 mentorship, cross-discipline learning, and the joy of working with others who get it. 

growth

Team meetings, shadowing opportunities, Slack channels, and case consults = no more “figuring it out alone.”

I'm Katie, your new, possibly too authentic, EI friend

What can I say, I'm an actual human - the kind that works and moms every day and doesn't have time for brand photos (clearly). I've been an EI therapist for 12 years and counting. I believe in being really good at what we do (as long as we don't count taking selfies).
