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.
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.
Flexible work from home options available.
Candidates must possess a master’s degree in a behavioral science or related field and hold active clinical licensure in Connecticut (LCSW, LPC, LMFT, PsyD, PhD). Experience with intake assessments, treatment plans, case notes, and effective communication skills are also required.
Market context

These roles can be competitive because employers commonly look for reliable scheduling, documentation skills, and practical requirements such as a high school diploma, a valid driver’s license, access to an insured vehicle, and completed clearances.
