Thinking about leaving agency life for private practice, but worried about trading one set of headaches for another - insurance credentialing, marketing yourself, chasing your own billing? You don't have to do it alone, and you don't have to figure it out from scratch.
Ellie Mental Health is a locally owned, locally operated private practice with locations in Lee's Summit, Independence, State Line Rd (Missouri side), and North Oak . We built our model specifically to make the leap from agency to private practice easy: we handle client inquiries, scheduling, therapist matching, insurance contracting, and billing, so you get the autonomy and earning potential of private practice without having to run a small business on the side.
We believe a great experience for our therapists leads directly to better care and better outcomes for our clients. That's not a tagline - it's how we're structured.
This Role
This is a full-time position requiring a caseload of 25 client hours per week, based across our Lee's Summit, Independence, State Line, and North Oak locations.
What We Offer Competitive compensation with uncapped earning potential (pay range: (add range here))
Medical and dental insurance
401(k) with match
Paid holidays and PTO - including your birthday
Flexible scheduling within your caseload
Paid case consultations
Paid continuing education time
Paid time for documentation
In-house educational library with approved CEU credits
A beautiful, spacious office - rent-free
Credentialing, office space, and technology all included
What You'll Do Evaluate mental health diagnoses, create and implement treatment plans, and maintain ongoing documentation (diagnosis updates, treatment plan reviews, case notes) per company policy
Maintain a full-time caseload of 25 client hours per week
Provide excellent customer service to clients and collaborate with a supportive, dynamic team
Bring creativity to your interventions to help clients meet and exceed their goals
Submit individual session documentation per company guidelines
What You'll Need A master's degree in a behavioral science or related field from an accredited college or university, with active progress toward licensure
A clinical license in Missouri (LMFT, LPC, or LCSW)
Experience completing diagnostic tools, treatment plans, and clinical case notes
Familiarity with therapy services, community resources, insurance billing, and mental health documentation (preferred)
Ability to submit documentation in a timely manner
Ability to model stable, appropriate boundaries with clients
Comfort working with a diverse client base
Proficiency with standard office technology and Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems
Training or certification in CBT, DBT, EMDR, Play Therapy, or Sand Tray Therapy is a plus, but not required.
About Ellie Mental Health
Ellie Mental Health is a multi-clinic mental health organization founded on one core principle: destigmatizing mental health. The industry is full of barriers, and we've made it our mission to break them down - for our clients and for the clinicians who serve them.
Our approach to destigmatizing? Humor. Struggling with mental health is 100% normal. Some days are great, some days you want to dig a hole and hide - even your therapist has those days. We believe in meeting that reality with honesty, warmth, and a sense of humor.

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?
