Job Description

Online Child Therapist (Remote)

🌱 Be the Person Kids Remember—No Matter the Distance

Think about the last time you watched a child open up and truly shine. That’s the sort of change you’ll help create, day after day, as a remote Online Child Therapist. Kids and families will look to you, not just for answers, but for encouragement, understanding, and the reassurance that someone is genuinely listening, even through a screen.

🧠 Real Support, Wherever Life Takes You

Kids don’t need a fancy office to feel safe—they need a caring adult who meets them right where they are. Whether they’re in their favorite chair at home or just logging on from the kitchen table, you’re there to help them make sense of life’s tough spots, celebrate wins (big or small), and feel genuinely heard.

Here’s what a typical day can include:

  • 👂 Letting children set the pace as you connect with them through virtual pediatric counseling.
  • 🎨 Finding ways to blend play and conversation—maybe it’s drawing together on-screen or sharing a silly story.
  • 💬 Being a steady, positive presence for families, especially when they feel stuck or uncertain.
