Your questions, answered
How do I become an Alma member?
Fill out this form and we’ll set up a call with one of our Community Growth Managers to help you learn more about membership and onboarding.
Are there any practice requirements for members?
Your practice is your own, and how you run it is always up to you. Because of our membership structure, we’re always focused on how Alma can serve you — not the other way around. As a member, you have control over what your practice looks like, from the number of clients you see each week and the rates you work at, to what type of therapy modality you use. No matter what you decide, we’ll be there to support you in building your best practice.
Can I join Alma with a limited license?
No. At this time, Alma is only available to clinicians who are fully licensed.
Does Alma take a cut of my fee from visits with cash-pay clients?
No. We charge a monthly fee for membership that gives you access to all of Alma’s benefits. The income from your cash-pay clients stays with you.
Can I accept referrals outside of Alma?
Alma is designed to support your entire practice. We’ll help you manage all of your clients — whether they come to you through Alma or not.
