Why Work With Us

Ampersand Therapy empowers you to serve your students! We're a small company that started in Western WA and has grown to additional states, including NC, SC, CO, OR, AZ, IL, and MN. We are proud to be women, minority, and therapist owned and run. We began our own careers working in the districts and also as contractors. We sought to create an alternative to working with big staffing companies. The result is a small team of like-minded specialists who are striving to create a company that we would want to work for. Because we are therapists and special education providers ourselves, we are deeply appreciative of and understand the work that you do. We're also in a unique position to be able to support and mentor those who are new to this practice area.

We're so passionate about students, that we're often working in the schools ourselves. You might find us doing treatments alongside you!
