Couples, Family & Group Therapy Focus

Full-Time and Part-Time Opportunities | Concord, Missouri

Be part of a national movement to break down barriers, challenge stigma, and bring greater creativity and humanity to mental health care.
At Ellie Mental Health - Concord, we're looking for compassionate, collaborative therapists who want to provide excellent care while helping us build the next generation of mental health services for individuals, couples, families, and groups throughout the St. Louis community.


We are especially interested in clinicians who have experience-or a strong interest-in:

• Couples therapy
• Family therapy and family systems
• Parent-child and caregiver relationships
• Group therapy
• Psychoeducational and skills-based programs
• Children, teens, and young adults

As our clinic grows, we are expanding beyond individual therapy to create stronger services for families and couples, as well as group programs focused on areas such as anxiety, ADHD, parenting, grief, emotional regulation, teen resilience, relationships, and family communication.


If you're excited by the opportunity to provide therapy, collaborate with a supportive team, and potentially help develop groups or specialized programs, we'd love to meet you.


Who We Are Ellie Mental Health was founded by clinicians with a mission to compassionately transform the culture of mental health care.
The mental health system is full of barriers-for clients and clinicians alike. Ellie was created to remove as many of those barriers as possible and make quality mental health care more accessible, creative, and human.
Ellie Mental Health - Concord is locally owned and operated. We are proud to serve children, teens, adults, couples, and families through both in-person and telehealth services.


Our culture is grounded in:

• Authenticity
• Compassion
• Creativity
• Acceptance
• Determination
• Humor

We believe clinicians do their best work when they feel supported, respected, and trusted. That is why we prioritize the clinician experience and provide the administrative infrastructure needed to help therapists focus more of their energy on client care.

• Competitive compensation with uncapped earning potential
• Guaranteed rate per completed clinical session
• Additional compensation for approved leadership, supervision, program development, and professional contributions

Compensation:

We believe in transparency and predictability when it comes to our clinician's pay!

Say goodbye to the days of waiting for insurance claims to process, not knowing how much your next paycheck will be, and taking the hit on unpaid services.

We offer a guaranteed hourly rate per session, paid in the next payroll period. Compensation varies based on licensure status and years of experience.

But wait! We value your non-billable time too! That's why our clinicians have an allotted number of administrative hours to compensate you for the time you spend outside of session.

Ellie Mental Health - Concord is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for employees and clients of all backgrounds.

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?
