Early Intervention Physical Therapist

At NeuroFit Institute, we believe children and families deserve more than standard care. They deserve therapists who bring excellence and creativity into every visit, lead with compassion and empathy, honor each family and child’s dignity, and foster growth through empowerment and nurture.

We’re a therapist-owned practice with a high-drive, high-support culture, and we’re looking for like-minded colleagues who raise the bar for those around them. Here, growth means being comfortable with the uncomfortable: leaning into feedback, both giving and receiving, as part of daily practice. If you thrive in collaboration, believe in empowering families, and want to grow in your craft while embodying these values, you may be the colleague we’re looking for.

  • Dedicated to lifelong learning and professional development

  • Proactive communicator and collaborator: uplifting and inspiring your colleagues as they do for you
