We are seeking a Clinical Director to lead and optimize operations at our outpatient counseling clinic. This role is focused on continuously improving clinician development and client/community impact through day-to-day operations.


Important Things About Us:
Ellie was proudly founded on the principle of destigmatizing mental health. The mental health industry is full of barriers, and we've made it our mission to do mental health better for clinicians and communities. This position is an important part of our continued growth and comes with unmatched impact & growth opportunity.


Each Ellie is a locally-owned, in-person focused, responsible for-profit business. We're values-driven, fully embracing Ellie core values (Authenticity, Acceptance, Creativity, Compassion, Determination, Humor) alongside our clinic values of Community, Stability and (double-stamped) Authenticity.


Really Important Things About You:
You are:

• A Change-Maker - You're motivated by missions larger than yourself. You know you can help teams achieve their missions better and take joy in contributing to collective success, growth and impact. It's the biggest part of what makes Ellie a great fit for you.
• Accountable - You foster a culture of trust by consistently honoring commitments - your 'Say vs. Do' ratio is sky high. You take ownership of setting and reaching goals. Not because it's expected, but because you're vested in the outcome of your work.
• Organized & systems-focused - Admin, meetings, clinical care, relationships, surprises and new projects... you maintain a high standard for all work while caring deeply about how work gets done. Minimizing the time and energy required to do routine work well - maximizing what's available for the most impactful and fulfilling work only you (or your team) can do.
• Someone who's dunnit- You've built & led awesome (preferably clinical) teams to achieve measurable goals.

Key Responsibilities:

• Clinician Recruiting, Onboarding & Enablement : Our Community starts with our team. Alongside the leadership team you'll support the all-important process of recruiting with special care for candidate experience and selection. You'll be responsible for ensuring new team members receive the expectations, guidance and support to be successful.
• Caseload Development & Management : Provide clear expectations, support (including direct & managed outreach) and accountability for building and maintaining clinician caseloads. Provide corrective management promptly when needed.
• Documentation Oversight : Ensure documentation meets clinic standards and is completed on time.
• Staff Engagement : Our clinic reflects our values - Community, Stability, Authenticity. You'll play a primary role in enriching clinic culture with connection and our common passion for learning and improvement.
• Clinical Care : It is important to us that our clinic directors remain connected to clinical work. You will be responsible for maintaining a small caseload
• Experience Management : Interactions are the basis of our impact. You'll help ensure the experiences of our clients, referral partners and the general public are consistently remarkable. That our clinic is a warm, comfortable and predictable environment, every time. That we're reachable, responsive, and supremely helpful in every interaction, in person, by phone or online.

Key Skills and Requirements:

• Licensed counselor (LPC, LCSW, LMFT, PhD, PsyD) with a minimum of 3 years of clinical or management experience.
• Strong leadership and organizational skills.
• Ability to prioritize and systematize across multiple responsibilities.
• Excellent communication and problem-solving abilities within diverse teams.

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?
