Common questions

Things hosts ask before they apply.

What does October pay?
Hosts in your region typically earn USD 30–60 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

For sleep specialists who want reach beyond the room.

Hosting for sleep specialists

Sleep is the highest-demand topic across October's enterprise customers, by a wide margin. Working adults under-sleep chronically, the wellness internet is full of bad advice, and most attendees have never spoken to anyone formally trained in sleep medicine or CBT-I. For BSM and AASM-credentialed clinicians, registered sleep technologists, and CBT-I-trained therapists, hosting on October is a way to do high-impact sleep work for audiences that genuinely need it — at scale, alongside an existing clinical practice.

You set your pace, pick your topics, and there is no exclusivity.

What sleep specialists host on

Topic demand is consistently strong across the breadth of sleep work: chronic insomnia and CBT-I, sleep and shift work, sleep through perimenopause and menopause, sleep and parenting, sleep apnoea awareness and screening, sleep and anxiety, ADHD and sleep, circadian rhythm and chronotype, jet lag, sleep hygiene that actually works, and recovering from a period of poor sleep.

A typical session is 50 minutes, live, with audio or video and interactive chat. Sessions are educational and group-based, not 1:1 clinical care. You provide evidence-based information, help attendees understand what is and is not likely to be useful for their situation, and direct people toward clinical pathways where appropriate.

Scope of practice

You host within your specialty and registration. You do not diagnose individual attendees, prescribe, or provide individualised treatment plans through the session format. Where suspected sleep apnoea, parasomnia or other clinical concerns surface in chat, you direct attendees to their primary care provider or a sleep clinic — and, where they are in your jurisdiction, you can offer to follow up in your own practice.

Who we approve

We approve BSM, BBSM, RPSGT, AASM-credentialed sleep medicine clinicians and registered sleep technologists; CBT-I-trained psychologists, counsellors and nurses (verifiable training from a recognised provider — for example, Behavioural Sleep Medicine Academy, Perelman, or established CBT-I courses through APA/BPS-recognised pathways); and physicians with formal sleep medicine training. We also welcome dual-credentialed clinicians where sleep is a clear specialty within a broader scope. Beyond credentials, we look for the ability to translate sleep science into practical, evidence-based guidance for working adults without overstepping into diagnosis.
