Why Work With Us

Ampersand Therapy was founded by therapists who understand what it’s like to be in your shoes. After years in school districts and contract roles, we created a company rooted in  empathy, flexibility, and trust —designed to support school professionals with meaningful, responsive leadership.

We volunteer with and support organizations like  Special Olympics The Moth , and  Project Canine . We also encourage and support our team’s personal passions and causes.

We strive to operate sustainably—digitizing paperwork, reducing waste, and maintaining a carbon-negative impact.
