About the Practice
 
Ellie Mental Health is a privately owned group private practice. Our environment prioritizes clinician autonomy, flexibility, and meaningful professional growth. 


We are committed to fostering a supportive, collaborative workplace that balances independence with strong clinical mentorship. While working within necessary systems and regulations, we strive to minimize unnecessary bureaucracy and empower clinicians with greater control over their schedules and caseloads. 

Our Values

Mental health work is tough. Burnout is real. That’s why we put our therapists’ well-being first: we believe happy clinicians = better care and healthier communities. At Ellie Mental Health, we live our values: humor, authenticity, compassion, acceptance, determination, and creativity. 

Clinic Director Vision 
Andrea Redeau, LPC and Board-certified supervisor: After a decade in the field, I am ready to apply my knowledge, experience, and clinical insight toward shaping the next generation of therapists. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to learn from and collaborate with a diverse range of local practitioners and behavioral health agencies. These experiences have given me a comprehensive understanding of both the challenges our clients face and the systemic pressures impacting clinicians. 


My vision is to build a group practice rooted in community, clinical excellence, and sustainability. I aim to create an environment where therapists feel supported, valued, and connected—while also honoring their autonomy and individual clinical voice. Equally important is establishing a compensation model that allows clinicians to earn a fair, livable salary, enabling them to thrive both personally and professionally. 


Through this work, I hope to foster not only strong clinicians, but a healthier, more sustainable future for the field as a whole.
