Why Work With Ampersand Therapy?

We’re not your average staffing agency. Founded by therapists who’ve worked in schools,  Ampersand Therapy was built to be the kind of supportive, transparent, and empowering workplace we always wanted for ourselves.

We’re small, mission-driven, and we stay involved—many of us are still working in schools! That means we  see the day-to-day challenges and know what it takes to support you.

Our Values

  • Equity & Inclusion: We actively support anti-racism, inclusive practices, and partner with organizations like  The Conscious Kid .
  • Community Engagement: We give back and volunteer with  Special Olympics Project Canine The Moth , and more.
  • Environmental Responsibility: We operate with a carbon-negative impact, minimize paper use, and choose low-waste tools.

A Workplace Where You Belong

Ampersand Therapy is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate and uplift diverse identities and lived experiences. No matter your background—we encourage you to apply and be part of a team committed to belonging and equity.
