About Us

Ellie Mental Health is a compassionate and client-centered outpatient mental health clinic committed to creating a supportive, inclusive, and collaborative environment for both clients and clinicians. We believe in meeting people where they are and empowering them on their journey toward mental wellness. Our team values authenticity, empathy, and professional growth—and we’re excited to welcome a pre-licensed therapist who shares that vision.

Preferably, the right candidate will hold a minimum of 1500 clinically supervised hours in an outpatient setting.

Position Overview

We are seeking a motivated and compassionate pre-licensed mental health therapist (e.g., LPC-IT, APSW, MFT-IT) to join our team.

  • Collaborate with clinical supervisors and team members to support client care and your growth as a clinician
  • Attend regular supervision and team meetings
  • Maintain ethical and professional standards of care
  • Participate in ongoing professional development

Qualifications

  • Master’s degree in counseling, social work, marriage and family therapy, or a related field
  • Must hold active LPC-IT or APSW. SAC-IT also encouraged to apply
  • Strong interpersonal skills and a genuine desire to support others
  • Open-minded, self-aware, and committed to cultural humility and inclusivity
  • Comfortable working with diverse populations and presenting concerns
  • Ability to work independently while being part of a collaborative team

What We Offer

  • Clinical supervision for licensure (LPC, LCSW, CSAC)
  • Flexible scheduling options
  • Supportive and inclusive work culture
  • Opportunities for continued education and training
  • Comfortable and fully furnished office space
  • Competitive compensation based on experience and caseload
  • Electronic health record system and administrative support

Compensation: $50,000.00 - $70,000.00 per year

Seeking creative & collaborative humans with a passion for changing mental health care in fun and meaningful ways.

Don’t meet EVERY requirement?

Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. Ellie Mental Health is devoted to purposefully building an inclusive and diverse workplace where all of our humans can be their authentic selves! (Authenticity is one of our core values, after all…) If you’re excited about the chance to be a change-maker with us, but your past experience doesn’t perfectly align with every single qualification of the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. Our mental health jobs need dedicated individuals from every background who are willing to care for others. And who knows, you might just be the perfect candidate for another role!

Employee Experience

We take care of our people. It’s that simple. From investing in their financial future, to providing wages that shatter the ceiling in our industry to reasonable caseload expectations we ensure that our people are happy. Happy employees do better work and provide better client care! No matter what it is that you do in your mental health career at Ellie, our clients depend on us cultivating an environment where our employees can thrive so that they can thrive too!

Y’all, jobs in mental health are tough jobs with a high risk of emotional fatigue and burnout. At Ellie, we use all of our core values of humor, creativity, authenticity, acceptance, determination, and compassion not just out in our communities, but we turn them inwards too! Our employees have clear growth paths for advancing their careers.

We have created a culture that reminds us that our employees are our leaders!

Company Structure

Ellie is a socially responsible for-profit business, which allows us to be flexible and responsive to our community’s needs. Many mental health and wellness-focused companies are non-profits or government agencies, which rely on the general public, grants, or large donors for funding. This model often results in little creativity and lower compensation for employees, promoting a work culture that just makes people feel “blah.”

Feeling blah doesn’t help employees stay motivated, engaged, or even in their jobs for a very long time! So we created a new model: one that puts flexibility, innovative decision-making, creativity, and our people first, while remaining a socially conscious and responsible for-profit business focused on changing how we treat mental health.

In short, we’re just people helping people. Wanna join the herd?
