Ellie Mental Health | Norwalk, CT

$65,000–$90,000 per year

Your schedule. Your caseload. Your way of doing therapy.

Ellie Mental Health is on a mission to improve and expand access to quality mental health care. This full-time, hybrid role lets you set your own schedule and see clients in person, via telehealth, or both. Licensed and pre-licensed clinicians are welcome.

We offer individual, couples, family, and group therapy in person and through telehealth. Our culture runs on our core values: autonomy, flexibility, creativity, authenticity, humor, compassion, respect for diversity, acceptance, and determination.

We value therapists of every background and identity, and especially encourage BIPOC and LGBTQ+ clinicians to apply. Training in EMDR, neurodivergent-affirming care, play therapy, or other modalities is a plus.
