Our hiring process

Find the Right Fit for You

At Playabilities, we know that one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to your career. Whether you’re looking for a long-term home, supplemental income, or something in between, we offer flexible paths that meet you where you are.

Full-Time Roles
Our full-time therapists are looking for consistency, growth, and a place to build a meaningful career. This is a great fit if you want a steady caseload, comprehensive benefits, and a clear path to grow your clinical skills, and mentorship opportunities. You enjoy being part of a team, investing in relationships with families, and making a long-term impact.

Part-Time Roles
Part-time therapist positions are ideal if you’re looking for flexibility while still staying connected to the clinical setting. Many of our part-time therapists are balancing family life, another role, or some kind of transition in their career. This is a great fit if you want meaningful work with a schedule that fits your life, without the expectations of a full-time caseload.

After-School Hours
Our after-school opportunities are designed for therapists who love their current role, often in schools, but are looking to earn extra income and want to expand their clinical experience. This is a great fit if you’re energized by working with kids in a clinical setting, want flexible evening hours, and enjoy the opportunity to focus on individualized, hands-on care in a clinic environment.

No matter the path, you’ll be supported by a collaborative team that values growth, flexibility, and doing meaningful work together.
