Full-Time or Part-Time Palatine, IL (Remote with Optional In-Office Space)

Ellie Mental Health in Palatine is seeking a Licensed Clinical Psychologist (PsyD required) to join our growing outpatient therapy practice in a full-time or part-time role.

This position combines direct clinical services with clinical oversight responsibilities that support incident-to billing within the practice.

This role is primarily remote, though optional office space is available at our Palatine clinic for those who prefer occasional in-person work.
