Ellie Mental Health was proudly founded on the principle of destigmatizing therapy. We’ve made it our goal to break down barriers to treatment and fill the gaps often left by our patchy healthcare system. One of the ways we do this is by prioritizing the clinician’s experience. Ellie Mental Health Livonia is locally‑owned and clinician‑operated. Our clinic is structured to remove many of the daily obstacles that get in the way of providing world‑class mental health care.

We are constantly working with our therapists to lower the administrative aspects of their job to the absolute minimum, so they have more time to focus on what they love—serving clients! We want our people to be happy, because happy therapists do better work!

As a Mental Health Therapist, you will share our vision for improving and expanding access to quality mental health care and will thrive in an environment driven by our core values: authenticity, humor, compassion, creativity, acceptance, and determination. This is a contract position for an LLMSW looking for a side hustle. Maybe you’re looking to see what private practice is all about?

Maybe you just need some extra money? You will come prepared to build and maintain a caseload of at least 12 client hours per week. We’ll provide you with a beautiful office to work out of, training to get you up and running, free clinical supervision, and ongoing support. We want to make sure that you’re not just making some side money, but that you’re feeling confident as a clinical social worker!

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!
