Help Us Grow Occupational Therapy Services in Our Community!

Stockton Health Group is looking for an experienced, compassionate, and motivated Occupational Therapist to join our growing multidisciplinary team in Sussex, New Brunswick.

We are seeking a clinician with a strong foundation in pediatric developmental assessment and intervention, particularly supporting children with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, and emotional or behavioural regulation challenges.

This is an opportunity to build meaningful relationships with patients and families, collaborate with other health professionals, and help shape the continued growth of occupational therapy services in our community.

- Emotional and behavioural regulation: Supporting children with complex regulation and participation challenges through evidence-informed, strengths-based approaches.
- Activities of daily living: Addressing functional challenges related to feeding, toileting, dressing, self-care, and independence.
- Family and caregiver education:



Collaborating with families to develop practical strategies that support meaningful progress at home, school, and in the community.
- Interdisciplinary collaboration: Working alongside other health professionals to provide coordinated, patient-centred care.

Experience with adult occupational therapy services, including functional rehabilitation, cognitive rehabilitation, mental health, or community-based care, would be considered a valuable asset.

Required:

- Degree in Occupational Therapy from a recognized institution.
- Registered or eligible for registration as an Occupational Therapist in New Brunswick.
- A minimum of one to three years of relevant clinical experience preferred, with demonstrated expertise in pediatric assessment and neurodevelopmental care.
- Experience administering and interpreting standardized pediatric developmental assessments.

Assets:

- Advanced training in pediatric assessment, sensory processing, self-regulation, or neurodevelopmental intervention.
- Experience with feeding, toileting, and other functional independence challenges.
- Experience providing occupational therapy to adult populations.
