What happens if an employee leaves their organisation or university?
You'll have 30 days of continued access to Sonder to wrap up ongoing support or connect with resources. After 30 days, your account will be deactivated. If you're in therapy, your clinician will help you transition to external support.
Your 30-day grace period
When your eligibility with your organisation ends, you automatically get 30 days of continued access to Sonder. This gives you time to:
- Access the Wellbeing Library for resources and support
- Complete ongoing conversations with Sonder Care Specialists
- Transition ongoing therapy to an external provider
- Download or save important information
- Plan your next steps for support
What you can do during the 30 days
-
Access to the app: You have full access to the Sonder app for the entire 30-day period. You can chat with Care Specialists, access the Wellbeing Library, use safety features, and reach out for support just as you normally would.
-
Ongoing therapy: If you're currently in therapy through Sonder, your clinician will work with you to:
-
- Discuss your transition and next steps
- Connect you with suitable external providers or support services
- Ensure continuity of care after your access ends
- Provide referrals or recommendations based on your needs
-
Other ongoing support If you're receiving other types of ongoing support (coaching, consultations, etc.), your care team will help you understand what happens and how to continue that support externally if needed.
