Insurance for Certified Therapists

You work hard to ensure your clients get the treatment they require in a safe environment. Because the service you provide involves clients relying on your professional expertise and advice, there is an element of risk. That’s why it’s important to be prepared for these risks by having a Therapist insurance policy in place, to help protect you and your livelihood.

Who needs therapist insurance?

All therapists need insurance to protect them from risk. As a certified therapist, your job is to assess and treat patients who come to you with a variety of issues that require your professional advice. While some of your treatment plans may be straightforward, issues may arise, which could result in a lawsuit. Depending on the result of the lawsuit, you may be required to pay a hefty amount in damages. Even if the lawsuit ends in your favour, the cost of legal fees can hurt your practice. Therapist insurance, can provide coverage in the event that a claim is brought against you or your practice.
