At Ellie Mental Health, we believe great therapy starts with well‑supported therapists. Not productivity robots. We’re on a mission to compassionately transform the culture of mental health care by making wellness more human, accessible, and sustainable—for clients and clinicians.

Day in the Life Snapshot

Full‑time outpatient therapist

25 client sessions per week

Flexible scheduling

Competitive compensation

This role is probably a great fit if you:

Care deeply about clients and the team around you

Communicate openly, kindly, and proactively (especially when things feel hard)

Are self‑directed but enjoy being part of a supportive team

Welcome feedback as part of growth—not criticism

Want autonomy in your clinical work without feeling isolated

Clear expectations

Maintain a weekly caseload of 25 client sessions

Flexible scheduling once expectations are met

Some evening or weekend availability to meet client needs

Burnout is real, and dealing with it isn’t just on you. We believe in self‑care and mutual care, with realistic workloads, real flexibility, and leadership that actually shows up for the team (in and out of the clinic).

What your days will actually look like

Providing thoughtful, creative, evidence‑based therapy to a diverse client population

Evaluating mental health diagnoses, creating treatment plans and documentation that support quality care

Collaborating with a team that shows up, communicates, and has your back

Using your clinical judgment freely—trusting you

Preparing and submitting individual documentation for each session

Participating in supervision, consultation, and trainings (because therapy shouldn’t feel isolating)

Coordinating services with case managers, families, work personnel, medical personnel, other Ellie staff, and school staff as needed

What we offer (aka how we support you)

Competitive compensation with a transparent, unique pay model (base pay + commission)

Flexible schedules and strong work‑life balance; there’s no rigid clock‑in, clock‑out culture

Comfortable, fully furnished offices

Clinical autonomy and respect for your judgment

Ongoing supervision and team support towards your professional goals

A values‑driven culture rooted in creativity, authenticity, humor, compassion, acceptance, and determination

Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision, plus paid admin time, CEU support, and a 401(k) match

We handle the stuff you don’t want to like marketing, billing, and other admin, so you can focus on providing excellent care

Opportunity for in‑house clinical supervision

Company outings and celebrations

Qualifications (and things you’ll need)

Master’s degree in a behavioral science or related field from an accredited college or university

Active licensure in your designated field, including temporary and/or junior license

Experience with diagnostic assessments, treatment plans, and clinical case notes

Strong written and verbal communication skills

Comfort working with diverse populations

Ability to set stable, appropriate boundaries with clients

Timely documentation habits

Familiarity with EHR systems (Valant a plus; training provided)

Some evening or weekend availability is expected to meet client needs, but we plan schedules with you, not for you.

Flexible work from home options available.
