Child & Adolescent Therapist – LCSW, LCPC, LMFT, LPC or LSW
Bannockburn/Deerfield, IL | Full-Time | Hybrid Flexibility
Want the flexibility of private practice without having to build a practice by yourself?
At Ellie Mental Health–Bannockburn, we give therapists the clinical autonomy they want with the infrastructure, marketing support, benefits, and local team they need to build a rewarding career.
We are growing our child and adolescent services and are looking for a therapist who genuinely enjoys working with kids, teens, and families.
Our North Shore community has strong demand for clinicians who can help with anxiety, ADHD, emotional regulation, behavioral concerns, school challenges, family stress, and life transitions. We are particularly interested in therapists comfortable working with elementary-age children as well as adolescents.
You do not need to bring a full caseload with you. We actively invest in helping our clinicians grow through Google Ads, Meta advertising, SEO, community partnerships, school and provider outreach, sponsorships, and referral development.
You focus on being a great therapist. We help build the practice around you.
