Supervised Instructor (Independent Contractor)
Make a meaningful difference—one relationship at a time.
Do you believe that every person deserves to be understood, respected, and supported in a way that honours who they are? Are you looking for flexible work, a collaborative team, and opportunities to continue growing as a clinician?
Keepsake Educational Services (KES) is seeking compassionate, motivated, and neuro-affirming Supervised Instructors to join our growing team as Independent Contractors. We provide in-home, school, community, and virtual services that empower children, youth, and adults to build meaningful skills while celebrating their unique strengths.
At KES, we believe therapy should never focus on changing who someone is—it should focus on increasing independence, confidence, self-advocacy, and quality of life.

- Continue developing clinical knowledge through ongoing learning opportunities and supervision.
What We're Looking For
