Full-Time and Part-Time Opportunities | Concord, Missouri

Be part of a national movement to break down barriers, challenge stigma, and bring greater creativity and humanity to mental health care. At Ellie Mental Health – Concord, we’re looking for compassionate, collaborative therapists who want to provide excellent care while helping us build the next generation of mental health services for individuals, couples, families, and groups throughout the St. Louis community.

We are especially interested in clinicians who have experience—or a strong interest in:

• Couples therapy

• Parent-child and caregiver relationships
• Group therapy
• Psychoeducational and skills-based programs
• Children, teens, and young adults

As our clinic grows, we are expanding beyond individual therapy to create stronger services for families and couples, as well as group programs focused on areas such as anxiety, ADHD, parenting, grief, emotional regulation, teen resilience, relationships, and family communication.

If you’re excited by the opportunity to provide therapy, collaborate with a supportive team, and potentially help develop groups or specialized programs, we’d love to meet you.

Who We Are

Ellie Mental Health was founded by clinicians with a mission to compassionately transform the culture of mental health care. The mental health system is full of barriers—for clients and clinicians alike. Ellie was created to remove as many of those barriers as possible and make quality mental health care more accessible, creative, and human. Ellie Mental Health – Concord is locally owned and operated. We are proud to serve children, teens, adults, couples, and families through both in-person and telehealth services.

Our culture is grounded in:

• Authenticity
• Compassion
• Creativity
• Acceptance
• Determination
• Humor

We believe clinicians do their best work when they feel supported, respected, and trusted. That is why we prioritize the clinician experience and provide the administrative infrastructure needed to help therapists focus more of their energy on client care.

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation with uncapped earning potential
• Guaranteed rate per completed clinical session
• Additional compensation for approved leadership, supervision, program development, and professional contributions

• Paid clinical documentation and administrative support, based on the applicable compensation structure
• Credentialing and payer enrollment support
• Furnished office space and technology
• Centralized scheduling and administrative support
• Referral generation and client-therapist matching

• Participate in team meetings, consultation, and professional development

Full‑time clinicians are generally expected to maintain an average caseload of approximately 25 completed sessions per week after an appropriate ramp‑up period. Part‑time expectations are established based on agreed availability.

• Couples therapy

• Family systems
• Parenting and caregiver support
• Group therapy
• Child and adolescent therapy
• Play therapy

We believe in transparency and predictability when it comes to our clinician’s pay! We offer a guaranteed hourly rate per session, paid in the next payroll period. Compensation varies based on licensure status and years of experience.
