Private Practice Mental Health Therapist (Deerfield)

For Clinicians in Illinois Ready to Grow in Private Practice, Not Start Over
 

As a clinician, are you tired of feeling like you're working in isolation or drowning in paperwork? Looking for a place that actually creates ongoing change to prioritize clinician well-being? We're so glad we found you!

Ellie Mental Health was founded in 2015 by licensed clinicians in Minneapolis. Since then, the Ellie Family has continued to grow with multiple clinics nationwide and a growing number of locally owned and operated franchises across the country. We currently have 2 locations in Libertyville and Bannockburn/Deerfield, IL, with plans of continued expansion. As a Therapist at Ellie Mental Health, you'll share our vision for improving and expanding access to quality mental health care and thrive in an environment driven by our core values of authenticity, humor, compassion, creativity, acceptance, and determination.

At Ellie Mental Health – Deerfield/Bannockburn, we’re building a high-performing, clinician-centered group practice designed for experienced therapists who want the freedom of private practice without the business headaches.

This is not an entry-level role as we’re looking for clinicians who are already practicing directly with clients, already trusted, and ready to plug into something bigger with their personal goals.

Why Join Ellie Instead of Staying Solo?
You’ve built the relationships.
You’ve done the hard work.
Now let us handle the rest.

We remove the operational weight so you can focus on clinical excellence and growth, while earning competitively and maintaining autonomy.

What We Handle:

✔ Private practice therapists tired of managing payroll, rent, and insurance headaches
 ✔ Clinicians in group practices who want more support and stronger leadership
 ✔ Community mental health providers ready to reduce burnout
 ✔ Therapists with an active caseload who can transition clients with them
 ✔ Clinicians with strong word-of-mouth referral streams

 ****Limited-Time Transition Incentive: Experienced clinicians who join our Bannockburn team may qualify for a transition incentive of up to $3,000. This incentive is designed to support experienced therapists who have built strong client relationships and are seeking a new professional home while maintaining continuity of care for clients who voluntarily choose to continue services with them.

Additional terms and eligibility requirements apply.

Key Responsibilities
