Apply to join Breakthrough’s therapist network
About 11 minutes — we review every application.
Joining and participating in the network is free — no membership fees, no subscription, and no card to join. Beginning September 21, 2026, accepting the Care Start terms is what makes you eligible for commercial and cash-pay matches — you’ll add a payment card when you accept your first commercial or cash-pay match. The only charge is the Care Start fee described in our Terms of Service: $30 for each completed seven-calendar-date Coverage Period, up to four periods (28 days) and a maximum of $120 per match, shown on consolidated monthly statements. A period that does not complete is not billed. Nothing is billed unless a client has a first session booked with you; coverage starts on that booking date, and confirming the booking is not itself a charge.
No fee applies to a client matched with you before September 21, 2026, and no fee ever applies to a client whose care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid (including QUEST Integration), TRICARE, or another governmental health care program. From that date, Care Start will be part of every commercial and cash-pay match, so a therapist who has not accepted its terms will not be matched to those clients — public-program matches stay open to everyone, at no charge, with no card and no acceptance required.
Before you start, you can read the Therapist Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
