The Kind of Company We Are:
Ellie Mental Health was founded in 2015 when they opened their first clinic in Minneapolis. Since then, the “Ellie Fam” has continued to grow with multiple clinics in Minnesota and a growing number of locally owned and operated franchises throughout the country; like our 2 locations in Grand Rapids, MI.
Ellie – Grand Rapids was created in 2022 as part of Ellie’s franchise system to bring the Ellie model to the community and clinicians of West Michigan by opening our East Paris clinic. Since then, we opened our second location in July of 2024 in the Grandville area, and have plans for further expansion down the road.
Flexible work from home options available.
