About Ellie Mental Health

Founded in 2015 by therapists Erin Pash, LMFT and Kyle Keller, LICSW, Ellie began in Minnesota with one simple mission: to fill the gaps in mental health care. Today, Ellie is growing across the country through locally owned practices that share the same passion for authenticity, humor, compassion, creativity, acceptance, and determination.

Ellie Mental Health is a socially responsible for-profit business, which allows us to be flexible and responsive to our community’s needs. This model puts flexibility, innovative decision-making, creativity, and our people first while remaining socially conscious and focused on changing how we treat mental health.
