Looking for a place that actually creates ongoing change to prioritize clinician well-being? We're so glad we found you! Ellie Mental Health was founded in 2015 by licensed clinicians in Minneapolis. Since then, the Ellie Family has continued to grow with multiple clinics nationwide and a growing number of locally owned and operated franchises across the country. We currently have 2 locations in Libertyville and Bannockburn/Deerfield, IL, with plans of continued expansion in Lake County. As a Therapist at Ellie Mental Health, you'll share our vision for improving and expanding access to quality mental health care and thrive in an environment driven by our core values of authenticity, humor, compassion, creativity, acceptance, and determination. At Ellie Mental Health – Libertyville, we're building a high-performing, clinician-centered group practice designed for experienced therapists who want the freedom of private practice without needing to handle all the business headaches on their own. This is not an entry-level role as we're looking for clinicians who are practicing directly with clients in a therapeutic setting, already trusted, and ready to plug into something bigger with their personal goals.You've built the relationships, you've done the hard work; Now let us handle the rest! We remove the operational weight so you can focus on clinical excellence and growth, while earning competitively and maintaining autonomy.At Ellie, we believe that happy therapists do better work, and better work changes lives. If you're looking to be part of a mission-driven, supportive, and fun-loving team, we'd love to meet you. Location: Libertyville, Illinois 60048Flexible work from home options available.Compensation: $70,000.00 - $100,000.00 per yearDon'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 ExperienceWe 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 StructureEllie 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.
