Job description

Job Description

Ellie Mental Health is looking for fully licensed therapists (LPC, LCSW, and LMFT) who are seeking a different experience to ignite their creativity while minimizing the barriers that come with traditional therapy practices.

We are located in Yorktown-Kiln Creek, VA. Think about this opportunity like being in charge of your own private practice, but with lots of support and a great team! By offering centralized support for inquiries, intake scheduling, client/therapist matching, insurance credentialing and claims (we are in network with most major insurances, multiple Medicaid RAEs, Medicare, and Tricare), our providers get to focus most of their time on what they love most - providing world-class mental health services. We believe providing a fantastic experience for our providers is a critical link to better care and better outcomes in mental health.

We prioritize our therapists as much as our clients. We offer flexible scheduling, competitive compensation, and excellent benefits. Benefits include PTO, paid holidays (including your birthday), health insurance, and learning and development resources. You will also get to work in a beautiful, spacious office rent free.

Who Are We Looking For?

The perfect candidate is driven, accountable, and a problem solver that shares our passion for improving and expanding access to quality outpatient mental health care in Virginia. They will also thrive in a culture that emphasizes our values of creativity, authenticity, humor, compassion, acceptance, and determination.

Opportunities are available for in‑person individual, couples, family, and group therapy services. This role leverages in‑person and telehealth care, meeting our clients where they're at. This allows for a hybrid clinician schedule to collaborate with the team in the clinic and work from home! Our therapists relish working with autonomy and flexibility, while being part of a supportive team. We have been asking our community partners for their hopes in the types of therapy we’ll provide, including EMDR and other evidence‑based treatments for PTSD, parent‑child interaction therapy and other therapies for children and adolescents, Exposure and Response Prevention, therapies specific to eating disorders and body image concerns, group therapy, substance counseling integrated with therapy, therapy to support neurodiverse folx, and grief therapy.

We want our clinic to reflect the diversity that exists in our community! Bilingual, Black, Indigenous, Person of Color, Veteran, and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, and +Plus candidates are encouraged to apply. We also value diversity of age, ability, national origin, and religion/spirituality in our therapists.

What We Have To Offer

• Competitive compensation (hourly base pay plus commission) between $75,000.00 - 103,000.00.
• Flexible scheduling (set your own schedule!) and telehealth where clinically indicated
• Choosing the clients and presenting concerns you want to see!
• Nice Healthcare for your everyday care needs (www.nice.healthcare)
• Health, Dental & Vision Insurance options
• Paid Time-Off
• Paid Holidays (including your birthday!)
• Professional development - Free CEUs and paid training time
• True work/life balance (because that’s what you deserve)
• A growing network of community partners that collaborate on client care

Required Qualifications and Skills

• Respectful, inclusive, professional, flexible, collaborative, and team‑before‑me mentality
• Candidates are required to have at least a master’s degree in one of the behavioral sciences or related fields from an accredited college or university
• Candidates must have full/unrestricted clinical licensure (LMFT, LPC, LCSW, etc.) with a valid license to practice in the state of Virginia.
• Experience with completing psychosocial assessments, treatment plans and clinical case notes
• Comfort and familiarity working with a diverse client base
• Ability to demonstrate and model stable, appropriate boundaries with clients
• Ability to complete and submit documentation of services and other documents in a timely manner
• Proficient in using MacBook, app‑based phone software, and Microsoft Office, Outlook and Teams, and/or able to quickly learn new workplace software and systems
• Adept at learning and navigating Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems
• If planning to engage in tele‑health from home, having a home office that is professional, private, and HIPAA‑compliant

Preferred Experience, Skills And Abilities
