## Story

Currently, Ellie has 16 clinic locations open in the state of Minnesota. The first franchise location will open in Noblesville, Indiana this July. Shortly after, there will be locations opening in Denver, Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta, Baltimore, and many more.

"When we started this journey, we planned to sell 15 licenses in the first year,” said Chris Pash, Senior Vice President of Growth and Development at Ellie Mental Health. “The interest in the mission continues to be inspiring. It has also forced us, in a good way, to slow down and make sure that we have everything in place that we need for our franchisees to succeed.

Ellie Mental Health offers a unique and innovative approach to mental health care for all ages. Services include therapy for individuals and families, couples counseling, psychiatric medication management, and community-based mental health services. Ellie understands that mental health care is a priority and offers a quick turnaround time for matching clients with highly-qualified clinicians that will best suit their needs.

Each location is run by entrepreneurs who have a personal connection to mental health and are passionate about providing safe and welcoming environments to ensure that clients feel comfortable during their sessions, whether they are in-person or telehealth.

“We’re committed to improving accessibility to quality mental health care, especially now – the time to see someone, anyone, is out of control,” said Pash. “Our proven track record of getting people the right clinician to help them in a timely manner speaks for itself and we are so thankful to our franchise partners who resonate with our mission and help make it all happen.”
