What Does Our Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Insurance Cover?

from £47.04* per year

Our comprehensive CBT Insurance includes essential coverages specifically tailored to protect professionals in your field:

  • £3m Public Liability

  • This fundamental coverage protects you if a client or member of the public suffers an injury or property damage related to your business activities. Our standard policies include £3 million in public liability protection, with options to increase to £5 million if required.

  • £3m Products Liability

  • If you provide or sell products to your clients, such as therapeutic tools, workbooks, or audio recordings, this coverage protects you if these items cause injury or damage. This is particularly relevant for therapists who develop and supply their own resources as part of therapy programmes.

  • £3m Malpractice Cover

  • This specifically protects against claims arising from the professional services you provide. That’s why it’s also known as professional indemnity insurance. This protection covers legal defence costs and any compensation awarded.

  • £10k Financial Loss Cover

  • This protects you against claims for purely economic losses that don’t involve physical injury or property damage. We automatically include £10,000 of financial loss coverage in our policies.

* This price is for £3m public, products and malpractice cover (up to £5m available) and £10k financial loss cover for a sole trader. It includes insurance premium tax and excludes our admin charge. ALL customers will pay this amount UNLESS they choose to take out additional optional covers or treatments which are priced separately.

Additional Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Insurance Options

We also offer several optional covers that many CBT practitioners find valuable:

Personal Accident Insurance

Provides financial support if you’re unable to work due to an injury, helping replace lost income during recovery periods.

Equipment Insurance

Covers your business equipment, including laptops, therapy resources, and assessment tools against damage, theft, or loss.

Employer’s Liability Insurance

If you employ administrative staff or assistants, this coverage is legally required and protects you against claims from employees.

Covers Treatments

Who is Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Insurance for?

Our Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Insurance is designed specifically for qualified CBT practitioners working across the UK, including:

  • Online CBT practitioners delivering therapy through digital platforms
  • Practitioners working within healthcare settings who also maintain private practices
  • Newly qualified CBT therapists establishing their practice

If you combine CBT with other therapeutic approaches, we can create a bespoke policy that covers all aspects of your professional activities. This gives you comprehensive protection without gaps in your coverage.

Why do you need Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Insurance?

CBT involves working with vulnerable individuals experiencing psychological distress.  Without adequate insurance, you could be held personally liable in the event of a claim for injury, property damage or losses caused from incorrect advice.  The cost to defend these claims can be thousands of pounds in legal fees alone.

What Risks do CBT practitioners face?

While your expertise helps clients overcome significant challenges, there’s always potential for claims if therapy doesn’t meet expectations or if clients experience adverse outcomes.

Property damage risks

If you were to spill a cup of coffee on a client’s expensive handbag or on their laptop, they would expect their item to be replaced.  Insurance would be your saviour in situations such as this.

Client injury

Imagine a client slipped and fractured their arm while attending a therapy session.  If you were deemed liable for the incident, the cost of defending the claim and awarding damages can be significant.

No insurance

Even the most skilled and ethical CBT practitioners can face such allegations. Without proper insurance, the financial impact of defending against claims could be devastating, even if you’re ultimately not found at fault. Legal fees alone can run into thousands of pounds.
