Due to the nature of our work, the team at ATS highly valorizes partnership, integrity, compassion, and innovation. We believe in a collaborative approach to provide caring whereby the ATS team works with Northern and Southern clients to create innovative and personalized therapy services for people of all ages and places, including locally, across Canada, and internationally. In addition to the high-quality service, we provide in our clinic, we use advanced technology to conduct online therapy sessions, reaching clients in their most convenient location. Our proven approach is far from one-size fits all, which is why our team is seeking equally creative and innovative applicants.
At Anderson Therapy Services, employee satisfaction is one of the top priorities. The Child Wellness Team has been developed to support the collaborative cross-disciplinary work environment with job flexibility and opportunities for career development to ensure our team is supported. Child Wellness Navigators are also able to participate in trips to the communities with whom they work to allow for greater connection between the community, the child, and the clinician.
