Pricing Details
SonderMind is free for providers. Therapists receive bi-weekly reimbursement payouts with same-day payment option available. Premium in-network rates negotiated with major insurers.
No free trial. Alma often negotiates $10-30 higher per-session reimbursement than solo credentialing. At 20 sessions/week, even a $10 rate improvement generates $800/month in additional revenue—more than covering membership. $500 referral bonus for each provider referred.
