Mental Health Therapist
About The Position
Ellie Mental Health is a locally owned, locally operated private practice with locations in Lee's Summit, Independence, State Line Rd (Missouri side), and North Oak. We built our model specifically to make the leap from agency to private practice easy: we handle client inquiries, scheduling, therapist matching, insurance contracting, and billing, so you get the autonomy and earning potential of private practice without having to run a small business on the side.

This is a full-time position requiring a caseload of 25 client hours per week, based across our Lee's Summit, Independence, State Line, and North Oak locations.
