Why Work With Ampersand Therapy?
Ampersand Therapy is a local, women- and therapist-operated company founded by providers who understand what it’s like to work in schools. Our mission is to build a community of therapists who feel supported, appreciated, and empowered to make a difference. We proudly serve school districts throughout Western Washington and across several other states. You’ll work alongside a small, passionate team of school-based specialists—some of whom are still active providers in schools themselves. We offer mentorship and support, especially for newer school-based specialists, and are deeply committed to equity, sustainability, and community involvement.
Our Values
Equity & Inclusion: We’re actively working to build a diverse, inclusive culture and support racial justice. We donate to organizations like The Conscious Kid and provide anti-racism resources to our team.
Community Engagement: We volunteer with and support nonprofits such as Special Olympics, Project Canine, and The Moth — and empower our team to support the causes that matter most to them.
Environmental Sustainability: We reduce paper use, seek low-waste therapy options, and are committed to maintaining a negative carbon footprint.
Join our team of passionate school-based clinicians in Washington and make a lasting impact with students!
Neighborhoods+West of I-5, nurses and young professionals cluster in Bayside (Walk Score 82, bluff views of Port Gardner Bay, walkable to the marina and downtown, median home about $447k as of Oct 2025, typical 1-BR rent about $1,655), plus Port Gardner, Northwest Everett, and Harborview–Seahurst–Glenhaven for historic Craftsman bungalows and waterfront character. East of the freeway, especially ZIP 98208, Silver Lake—including Pioneer Trails with large lots and big backyards—and Silver Firs offer newer cul-de-sacs that bleed into Mill Creek; decent Silver Lake homes start around $800k. Boulevard Bluffs, View Ridge–Madison, and South Forest Park are also repeatedly named. I-5 is the lifestyle split: west is older, tighter, and walkable; east is suburban and family-oriented.

Getting around+Everett sits 25–30 miles north of Seattle on I-5; drives to downtown Seattle run about 40 minutes, or 20–30 minutes without traffic and longer when it stacks. Bayside has easy access to I-5 and US-2 and sits close to Everett Station and the downtown core, though parking is limited in that core. Seattle neighborhoods cited for people working in Everett include Roosevelt, Northgate, Greenwood, Ballard, and Fremont at about 20–40 minutes. A regional medical center draws healthcare workers citywide, so living in-city generally means a short local trip rather than a southbound I-5 slog; anyone working south of Northgate faces a longer, more complicated commute.

Outdoors+Jetty Island is the standout summer outing—residents treat it as a genuine seasonal asset other Puget Sound cities would drive an hour to reach. Port Gardner Bay and what sources call the West Coast’s largest public marina (also described as the second-largest marina on the West Coast) define daily waterfront life. Named parks include Grand Avenue Park, Howarth Park, and Forest Park; the Interurban Trail threads multiple neighborhoods for car-free recreation. Waterfront walks and Puget Sound views are the default weekend plan.

Check the commute at your shift’s start and end, upfront housing costs, and whether moving assistance must be repaid if you leave.
Living in Everett
Everett is a working aerospace-and-port city 25–30 miles north of Seattle that still buys more house than the Eastside: a June 2026 Zillow index near $620,000, Bayside medians closer to $447,000, and Silver Lake family homes starting around $800,000. Boeing’s Everett plant and Naval Station Everett dominate the job base; a regional medical center and The Everett Clinic pull nurses citywide, so living west of I-5 in Bayside or Port Gardner can mean a short hop to work instead of a 40-minute (often worse) I-5 run to Seattle. Walk Score 82 blocks, Scuttlebutt, Waterfront Place dining, and marina views sit on the west side; east of the freeway, Silver Lake’s Pioneer Trails and Silver Firs trade character for cul-de-sacs and yards. Weekends run to Jetty Island, the Interurban Trail, Grand Avenue Park, Forest Park, Schack Art Center, and games at Angel of the Winds Arena. The honest tradeoffs are grit, county-seat homelessness, Silver Lake schools at 4–6/10, limited Bayside parking, and a downtown still mid-recovery. Mukilteo and Lake Stevens are the quieter suburban overflow.
