Licensed Child and Family Therapist

Built for Clinicians Who Want More Autonomy — and Meaningful Work with Children & Families

Ellie Mental Health is a W2 private practice platform built for clinicians who want autonomy, income growth, and ownership — without the administrative burden of running their own practice.

We are seeking clinicians who enjoy working with children, adolescents, and families and are motivated to build a caseload in this area.

You won’t be handed a guaranteed schedule — you will build one.

You won’t manage billing, credentialing, rent, or overhead — we handle that.

You’ll have the flexibility to design your schedule, work hybrid (in-person + remote), and grow a child and family-focused caseload that aligns with your clinical interests and goals.

What Makes This Opportunity Different

• W2 employment — no 1099 tax or overhead burden 
• Hybrid schedule flexibility 
• Beautiful, fully furnished in-person clinic space (ideal for child & family work) 
• Administrative, billing, and credentialing support 
• Performance-based income growth potential 
• Bonus opportunities tied to productivity 
• Signing incentives available for clinicians with an established client base or community presence 
• Supervision for limited license clinicians 
• Ongoing case consultation support 
• Medical insurance benefits available for clinicians maintaining full-time caseloads 

We provide the infrastructure. You bring the ownership.

Who Thrives Here

Clinicians who:

• Enjoy working with children, adolescents, and families 
• Engage caregivers and family systems in treatment 
• Build and maintain recurring caseloads 
• Re-book and retain clients consistently 
• Develop relationships with schools, pediatricians, and community organizations

If you prefer a guaranteed caseload with minimal accountability, this may not be the right fit.

• Experience or strong interest in child, adolescent, and family therapy 
• Strong documentation and communication skills 
• Comfort with hybrid work 
• Existing caseload or referral relationships encouraged (incentive eligible) 

Compensation & Professional Support

• Competitive compensation structure 
• Bonus opportunities tied to performance 
• Flexible schedule 
• Hybrid work model 
• Supervision for limited license clinicians 
• Case consultation support 
• W2 stability without private practice overhead 

Why Join Ellie?

We are building clinics rooted in ownership, accountability, and access to care — not a therapy mill or corporate agency environment.

If you want autonomy, income growth, and the opportunity to do meaningful work with children and families, we’d love to connect.
