Common questions

Things hosts ask before they apply.

What does October pay?
Hosts in your region typically earn USD 30–90 per hosted session, paid monthly. Exact rate is set when we approve your application.
Do I need to be registered with a professional body?
Yes — clinicians need current registration with their relevant local board (HPCSA, BACP, BPS, AHPRA, APA, etc). Coaches need an ICF or EMCC credential or equivalent qualification.
How many hours can I host?
You set the pace. Some hosts do one session a week, others do several a day. There's no minimum and no exclusivity — your private practice continues alongside.
Where do clients come from?
October is the mental health platform for many of the largest enterprise customers in the world. Sessions are open to their employees — you don't do client acquisition.
How long does review take?
We aim to respond to every application within 5 business days. If you're a fit we send a secure onboarding link to set up banking, ID and the host agreement.
Are sessions therapy or education?
Sessions are educational and group-based, not 1:1 therapy. You host within your own scope of practice — we never put clinicians in situations outside it.
What about supervision and indemnity?
You host on your own scope of practice and indemnity. We help with safeguarding processes and have an internal clinical lead available if a session needs escalation.
Can I refer colleagues and earn for it?
Yes — once you're hosting, every host you refer who completes onboarding earns you a referral reward. Details on your /referrals page after sign-in.
About hosting on October

A closer look at hosting for global teams.

A second income stream that works around your practice

Clinicians and coaches face the same trade-off: meaningful work, capped earnings. Each hour of 1:1 work pays once, and growing a practice depends on slow, expensive client acquisition. October Health was built to give practitioners a second, leveraged channel — one where you reach dozens or hundreds of attendees in the same hour you would otherwise spend with one client, get paid reliably each month, and never have to do client acquisition yourself.

Hosts on October run live, group-based educational sessions for employees at some of the world's largest enterprise customers — organisations that pay October to support the mental health of their teams. Sessions slot around your existing schedule. You choose the topics you care about. We handle the audience, the platform, the scheduling, the payments and the safeguarding processes.

What hosting actually looks like

A typical session is 50 minutes, live, with audio or video and an interactive chat. Attendees join from their work device — sometimes 10, sometimes 200, depending on topic and employer. You prepare a short outline, open the session, share what you would share with a small group in your own practice, and answer questions in the chat as you go.

Topics span everything you would cover in clinical or coaching work, framed for working adults: anxiety and worry, burnout and overwhelm, sleep, relationships, parenting under pressure, conflict at work, performance, identity, midlife, ADHD, neurodivergence, grief and more. You host within your own scope of practice — sessions are educational and group-based, not 1:1 therapy. We never put clinicians in situations outside their scope.

Most hosts run between two and ten sessions per week, fitted around their private practice. Some run more. Some run one. You set the pace.

Who we approve

Every application is reviewed personally by our team within five business days. We approve registered clinicians (psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists, social workers, mental health nurses, dietitians) currently registered with a relevant local board, and qualified coaches with an ICF or EMCC credential or equivalent recognised qualification.

Beyond credentials, we look for evidence that you can hold a group well, that your work fits the educational/group-based format we host, and that your topics are useful for working adults. Specialty areas with high enterprise demand — sleep, ADHD, perinatal mental health, neurodivergence, anxiety, grief, leadership and parenting — are particularly welcome.

If you are a fit, you receive a secure onboarding link to set up banking, ID and the host agreement. Onboarding typically takes around 30 minutes.

How earnings work

October pays a per-session rate set when your application is approved. The exact rate depends on your region, experience and specialty, and is paid monthly in your local currency directly into your nominated bank account. No invoices, no chasing.

Top-rated hosts are invited into October's in-person training pool — keynotes, workshops and on-site programmes at enterprise customers, paid separately at a higher rate. Many hosts also find that the online work feeds their private practice: attendees who connect with your work sometimes reach out for 1:1, and you build a wider following you can take into talks, courses and your own programmes.

There is no minimum, no exclusivity, and no notice period if you ever want to step away.
