<strong>Let’s start with what actually matters.</strong> <br><br>
</div><div>At Ellie Mental Health, we believe great therapy starts with well-supported therapists. Not productivity robots. We’re on a mission to compassionately transform the culture of mental health care by making wellness more human, accessible, and sustainable—for clients <em>and</em> clinicians. <br><br>We’re currently looking for a Child & Family Therapist who is passionate about supporting kids, teens, and families through life’s challenges with creativity, compassion, and authenticity.</div><div>
