LMSW Clinical Supervisor & Therapist – Full-Time
Ellie Mental Health–Clarkston is an independently owned practice providing in-person and telehealth care throughout Michigan. Our furnished clinic and administrative support, including billing, allow clinicians to focus on client care, supervision, and growth.
We seek a compassionate Michigan LMSW with a Clinical designation to provide outpatient therapy and supervise LLMSWs while contributing to a collaborative practice grounded in authenticity, compassion, creativity, humor, acceptance, and determination.
Compensation
This is a W-2 straight-commission position, not a salaried position. Clinicians earn a commission percentage of collected insurance and client payments for completed services, a common outpatient private-practice model. Compensation covers session preparation, client sessions, scheduling, documentation, and required meetings. Unlike a 1099 arrangement, the W-2 model includes employee benefits, employer-paid payroll taxes, and employment protections.
Caseload Development
Building and maintaining a caseload is a shared responsibility. The practice provides marketing, online scheduling, administrative support, community relationships, and practice-generated referrals. Clinicians must also maintain availability, respond promptly to referrals, support retention, communicate their specialties, and participate in approved outreach.
Approved outreach and caseload-development activities are paid at $20 per hour when authorized in advance.
Full-time clinicians must average at least 25 direct client-facing hours per week and initially offer approximately 35 scheduling hours per week to support growth and cancellations. At least one evening is required.
Responsibilities
Conduct assessments, establish diagnoses, develop treatment plans, and provide evidence-based psychotherapy
Complete clinical documentation accurately and on time
Provide individual and group supervision to assigned LLMSWs
Review supervisees’ clinical work and documentation promptly
Monitor clinical competence, ethics, scope, risk management, documentation, and licensure progress
Remain available for required consultation and clinical escalation
Maintain supervision records and verify experience consistent with Michigan requirements and practice policy

Required Qualifications
Current, unrestricted Michigan LMSW license in good standing with the Clinical designation; limited licensure does not qualify
Ability to supervise clinical LLMSW experience and complete required Michigan LARA verification forms
Master of Social Work degree from a CSWE-accredited program
Experience with outpatient psychotherapy, assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, risk assessment, and compliant documentation
Ability to provide structured, ethical, timely, and developmentally appropriate supervision
Willingness to participate in caseload development and community outreach
Strong communication, organization, boundaries, dependability, and follow-through
Proficiency with EHR and office technology; Valant experience is a plus
