  • Partner with clinic leadership on staffing, scheduling, groups, and daily operations.
  • Support clinical intakes, parent coaching, family concerns, and client transitions.
  • Collaborate with OT, SLP, and other professionals.
  • Oversee documentation standards and contribute to company-wide clinical initiatives.
