Therapists Wanted

Looking for a place where you can do great clinical work without having to leave your personality at the door?

Ellie Mental Health is growing in Clarksville, TN, and we’re looking for passionate Psychologists (PsyD, PhD) and Therapists (LPC-MHSP, LCSW, LMFT) to join our team.

We’re here to make mental health care more accessible, challenge the stigma surrounding therapy, and create a workplace where clinicians can thrive.

If you’re authentic, compassionate, creative, and don’t mind laughing at work once in a while, you may have found your people.

What Your Role Looks Like

You’ll have the opportunity to focus on the work you trained to do:

• Evaluate mental health needs and develop treatment plans
• Provide quality, client-centered therapy
• Complete assessments, case notes, treatment plan reviews, and other documentation
• Maintain a minimum of 27 client visits per week for full-time positions
• Use creative interventions to help clients reach their goals
• Coordinate care with families, case managers, schools, medical professionals, and other providers
• Collaborate with a supportive clinical team
• Participate in clinical meetings, consultation, and training

Who Are We Looking For?

You’ll need:

• A master's degree in behavioral health or a related field
• Tennessee licensure preferred, including LPC-MHSP, LCSW, or LMFT
• Experience with treatment plans and clinical documentation
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• The ability to maintain healthy professional boundaries
• Comfort working with diverse populations
• Familiarity with Office 365 and electronic health records
• Valant experience is a plus

Experience with children, teens, adults, couples, families, trauma, substance use, or schools is welcome.

Knowledge of community resources, insurance billing, and mental health services is also a plus.

And a sense of humor? Definitely encouraged.

Why Ellie?

We believe clinicians do their best work when they have flexibility, support, and room to be themselves.

That’s why we offer:

• Paid PTO, including your birthday
• Paid holidays
• Free access to Ellie CEUs + additional paid CEU time
• Clinical supervision and consultation
• Flexible scheduling
• Opportunities to create new programs and develop your specialties
• Team-building activities and Ellie swag
• Clinical licensure supervision opportunities for LCSW, LPC-MHSP, and LMFT candidates

Supervisor availability may vary.

Build Something With Us

At Ellie, we don’t want you to simply fill a caseload. We want you to grow your clinical skills, explore your interests, share your ideas, and build a career you’re proud of.

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! 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?
