Ellie Mental Health is coming to Richmond, Texas this summer!
Ellie Mental Health is a highly successful multi-clinic mental health organization based in Minnesota. Ellie clinics are structured to remove many of the daily obstacles that get in the way of providing world-class mental health services.

Not to mention providing centralized administrative, technology, referral and inquiry support, scheduling, client/therapist matching, billing, and collections, and even CEU programs.
