About The Specialists The Specialists is a locally owned, women-owned, clinician-led speech and occupational therapy practice dedicated to providing exceptional services while creating an environment where therapists feel valued, supported, and fairly compensated. As clinicians ourselves, we understand the challenges of working in school settings, and we believe therapists deserve competitive compensation, professional autonomy, and an employer who genuinely understands their work. We are expanding our school-based therapy services and looking to connect with passionate Speech-Language Pathologists interested in contract opportunities with school districts throughout Michigan. A Unique Opportunity - Help Us Find Your Ideal Placement! Unlike traditional staffing agencies, we take a personalized approach to school-based placements. We are actively building relationships with school districts and seeking SLPs who would like to be considered for upcoming opportunities. Rather than requiring you to relocate or commute long distances for an existing opening, we want to learn where you'd like to work, your ideal schedule, and what you're looking for in a school-based position. Once we identify a strong candidate, our team can proactively reach out to school districts in your preferred geographic area to explore opportunities and establish a contract that works for everyone.
