Minneapolis, United States Ellie Mental Health Full time

As an In-Home Therapist at Ellie Mental Health, you'll work with children, adolescents, and caregivers to develop an understanding of the diagnosis and to address the ways that diagnosis impacts a child's functioning both at home and in the community. For children, this often looks like reducing behavior challenges unique to the school setting, navigating sibling relationships, developing frustration tolerance, recognizing trauma responses, improving peer interactions, or addressing depression and anxiety. Caregivers have the guidance to learn effective tools to support the needs of the individual child as well as the family unit. Clinicians may offer Play Therapy, Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dance/Movement Therapy, or other specific modalities. Overall, practice includes play-based and interactive methods, regular caregiver involvement and/or family therapy, and tailored approaches that meet the developmental needs of children and adolescents.

In-Home Therapy services are available to clients in Hennepin County who have a demonstrated barrier to a more traditional model of care. Some of these barriers can be transportation, medical needs, or mental health symptoms. In-Home services seek to challenge those obstacles and provide high-quality care in the home, out in the community, or virtually.

Ellie Mental Health was proudly founded by clinicians on the principle of destigmatizing mental health. The mental health industry is full of barriers, and we have made it our goal to fill the gap and find innovative ways to break down these barriers for our local communities. Ellie prides itself on being an innovative and creative team that works collaboratively with clients and community providers to deliver the most comprehensive and personalized treatment to all clients.

Ellie makes the clinician's experience a priority by offering excellent compensation, benefits, training, flexible scheduling (FT/PT/days/nights/weekends), CEU's, and an incredibly inclusive environment. We support clinicians through providing regular consultation and training opportunities, practice and documentation support, and resources for both clinicians and families.

BIPOC and LGBTQ encouraged to apply. FT and PT opportunities.

Responsibilities and Duties include:

  • Provide diagnostic assessment, treatment (including family and individual therapy), and referrals to minor clients and their parents/guardians.
  • Create and implement a treatment plan, complete ongoing documentation including further diagnosis, treatment plan reviews, and case notes
  • Collaborate with other Child Services providers including medication management, psychological assessment services, and other mental health providers to meet client needs.
  • Utilize creative, developmentally appropriate intervention that supports progress with individual and family treatment goals
  • Provide appropriate support (family therapy, resources, psychoeducation, etc) to parents/caregivers in alignment with treatment plans
  • Prepare and submit individual documentation
  • Coordinate services with external care providers including case managers, families, medical personnel, other Ellie staff, and school staff as needed
  • Attend and participate in all clinical staff meetings and trainings
  • Other stuff we probably forgot to add but just as meaningful to your role ;)
Required Qualifications and Skills include:
  • Candidates are required to have a master's degree in one of the behavioral sciences or related fields from an accredited college or university and on track to obtain licensure in their designated field. (Fully licensed mental health professional (LICSW, LMFT, LPCC, LP) with a valid state of Minnesota License preferred)
  • Passion and experience working with and meeting the unique mental health needs of children, adolescents, and families.
  • Embody our core values of authenticity, humor, compassion, creativity, acceptance, and determination.
  • Knowledge of developmental principles and awareness of the intersection between normative child development and psychopathology in the diagnosis and treatment of children/families
  • Experience completing diagnostic assessments, treatment plans and clinical case notes. (Experience with DC:0-5, ECSII/CASII, SDQ assessments preferred)
  • Ability to complete and submit documentation of services and other documents in a timely manner.
  • Comfort and familiarity working with a diverse client base.
  • Proficient in the use of typical office technology and Electronic Health Record systems
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Valid MN driver's license and the ability to see clients in their homes in Hennepin County

Seeking creative & collaborative humans with a passion for changing mental health care in fun and meaningful ways
Don't meet EVERY requirement?

Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. Ellie Mental Health is devoted to purposefully building an inclusive and diverse workplace where all of our humans can be their authentic selves (Authenticity is one of our core values, after all...) If you're excited about the chance to be a change-maker with us, but your past experience doesn't perfectly align with every single qualification of the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. Our mental health jobs need dedicated individuals from every background who are willing to care for others. And who knows, you might just be the perfect candidate for another role
Employee Experience

We take care of our people. It's that simple. From investing in their financial future, to providing wages that shatter the ceiling in our industry to reasonable caseload expectations we ensure that our people are happy. Happy employees do better work and provide better client care No matter what it is that you do in your mental health career at Ellie, our clients depend on us cultivating an environment where our employees can thrive so that they can thrive too

Y'all, 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.

We have created a culture that reminds us that our employees are our leaders
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.

In short, we're just people helping people. Wanna join the herd?
