Work-Life Balance Analysis

WeekdayDoc's proprietary algorithm rates Occupational Therapist at Cole Health a 6.2 out of 10 for work-life balance — classified as good. This places the position in the Above average in Pediatrics (Occupational Therapy) — ranked against 633 active Pediatrics (Occupational Therapy) listings on WeekdayDoc. Contributing factors include remote work flexibility.

Pediatrics — Occupational Therapist Career Context

In Texas, the Pediatrics weighted monthly median benchmark on WeekdayDoc is ~$86k (50 salary observations; 273 listings), vs ~$90k nationally (496 salary observations; 1,520 listings). Monthly aggregates cover 2026-03-01 through 2026-10-01; these are not the modal's selected comparable-job medians.

Of the 50 active Pediatrics listings this role was benchmarked against, 2% are remote, 40% have no call, 60% require no weekends — this position is remote.

The cost-of-living index for Texas is 97.1 (US average = 100; BEA Regional Price Parities (2024)), so the posted ~$78k midpoint carries the purchasing power of roughly $80k in an average-cost state. 57.7% of Texas clinicians report burnout symptoms in WeekdayDoc's Burnout Index (2026-01 data).

Location & Logistics

Texas has no state income tax, which can significantly increase take-home pay compared to high-tax states. At the posted ~$78k midpoint, that is roughly $3k–$5k a year versus a typical 4–7% state rate.
