YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
as a clinician on sound off

Sound Off provides a platform where military members who would otherwise avoid mental health support can engage anonymously.

From the perspective of the person seeking help, their interaction is completely contained within a mobile phone application. There is no waiting room, hotline to call, confirmation of status, or computer registration. Sound Off asks for one detail, the user’s state, while allowing for frequent, personal contact similar to any traditional telemedicine session. There has never been a mental health delivery model that allowed both repeat contact (essential for treatment) and anonymity.

As a clinician, you choose how often and how many members you support.

What It Means to be a Compensated Clinician

A Compensated Clinician is a clinician who has been approved by Sound Off to be paid for clinical sessions. Many of our partner organizations dedicate funding to ensure clinical capacity for their community.

What Your Commitment Is:

Is This Paid or Volunteer?

Both!  You can choose to be a paid (“compensated”) clinician, a volunteer clinician , or both. We have many groups who dedicate funding to their community to ensure that there is a guaranteed clinical support for their community.  If you are approved as a compensated clinician, and paired with a user from one of these groups, you will be paid for your session.

Many of our users come from communities that do not have dedicated financial support for clinical support or are uncomfortable providing their demographics. We rely on volunteer clinical support to serve these individuals. It’s an incredibly essential and meaningful way to give back to those who served.  

You can also elect to be classified as both a compensated and a volunteer clinician. This means that if you are selected by a user with financial support available, you will be treated as a compensated clinician and be paid accordingly. If you are paired with a user that does not have financial support available, you will volunteer your time for that session.

As Sound Off continues to work to secure additional funding for all military groups, volunteer clinicians are the only way we can provide help to users who do not feel comfortable asking for help anywhere else. If funding is available to support a new relationship, you will be compensated – regardless of your choice to support ProBono.
