We are Ellie: a new outpatient therapy clinic in Denver West. We're expanding our amazing team with child-focused LPCCs. Ellie clinicians are empowered to approach our clients creatively and authentically, and we're passionate about contributing to a work environment we are excited to be a part of.
Ellie makes the clinician’s experience a priority by offering: excellent compensation, supervision, benefits, training, and flexible scheduling. Clinicians are supported with centralized administrative, technology, referral and inquiry support, scheduling, client/therapist matching, billing and collections, and even CEU programs. We strive to lower the administrative aspects of providing care to the absolute minimum, so our practitioners have more time to focus on what they love - serving clients and being authentic people!!
How are we different?
We believe diversity thrives when united by shared purpose. Ellie Denver West is on a singular mission to improve lives in Denver West and surrounding communities. We believe this requires a fresh approach to improving the quality, accessibility, and fit of mental health care in our communities. It requires a team as diverse as the communities we serve, yet firmly united by our shared home and mission. It’s what we call EllieFam, and it’s the most important part of what we do.
- Taking care in selecting & supporting our clinicians is the most effective path to taking care of our community. We provide support through shared definitions of success and autonomy for you to achieve that success. One measurable example of how we achieve this is your time:
- Personalized schedules within available clinic hours
- Hybrid session environment (in-person and telehealth)
- All of your time is valuable- clinicians don’t work for free and are paid for administrative time, CEU time, consult time, etc.
- Educational attainment, licensure status, and lived experience are all valuable. Our compensation model reflects this.
You are a pre-licensed LPC/LSW/LMF driven by passion for and belief in the work you do. You’re excited by our mission and by the opportunity to bring your unique strengths & creativity to it at the ground level. You’re excited to support and be supported by a talented team as passionate and committed as you are. And more specifically, you're ready to play a key role increasing access and care to children in our community.

Ellie Mental Health - 126
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?
