Seeking Creative & Collaborative Humans With A Passion For Changing Mental Health Care In Fun And Meaningful Ways

Tired of hearing "that's just the way it is here"? Wanting to contribute to something new alongside a group of dedicated professionals? Starting to feel like you're reading an infomercial? We are Ellie: a new outpatient therapy clinic in Denver West and we're expanding our amazing team. We're looking for pre-licensed clinicians who are passionate not only about serving clients creatively and authentically but also about contributing to a work environment they are excited to call their work home. Ellie makes the clinician's experience a priority by offering competitive compensation, benefits, training, and flexible scheduling. Not to mention providing 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!

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. Here's a little of what EllieFam means to us:

• 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 clinician 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.
