Tailor-made insurance policies, made for specialists, by specialists.
Our comprehensive CBT Insurance includes essential coverages specifically tailored to protect professionals in your field:
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.
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.
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.
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.
We also offer several optional covers that many CBT practitioners find valuable:
Provides financial support if you’re unable to work due to an injury, helping replace lost income during recovery periods.
Covers your business equipment, including laptops, therapy resources, and assessment tools against damage, theft, or loss.
If you employ administrative staff or assistants, this coverage is legally required and protects you against claims from employees.
Our Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Insurance is designed specifically for qualified CBT practitioners working across the UK, including:
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.
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.

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.
Get a QuoteIf 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.
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.
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.
