Insurance for play therapists

Tailored insurance for your play therapists

Your work as a play therapist can play an important role in supporting children and their families as they work though often difficult, complex emotions and behaviours. Clearly, working closely with children brings great responsibility, and your work will be guided by important professional standards designed to protect both you and your clients – but things sometimes do go wrong and, when they do, you need the right insurance in place to protect your reputation and livelihood.

You can get comprehensive specialist cover at a competitive price in the next few minutes from as little as £1.79 per week (student therapists can get cover from £1.36 per week).* This includes a professional association discount and a 24-hour legal helpline, as well as no excess on the core therapists insurance.**

Our play therapy insurance delivers the tailored protection you need - stepping in to help with everything from legal fees and compensation, to crisis containment and much more.

• Protection
  We offer professional liability insurance that is designed to meet your individual needs, covering your work in play therapy, psychotherapy or counselling - including work as an educator, trainer or supervisor. Underwritten by Hiscox, cover can also be extended to include other work such as dramatherapy, music therapy, and life coaching.
  
• Care 
  We understand that the work of a play therapist is varied – so managing your risks effectively requires play therapist insurance that’s tailored to you. The Oxygen team will work with you to understand your business and the risks you face - using that insight to build tailored play therapy insurance just for you. It’s an approach that works - we often receive glowing client feedback and word of mouth recommendations from satisfied customers.
  
• Claims
  We hope you never have to make a claim under your Oxygen insurance for play therapists, but if you do, we have a dedicated claims team on hand to help support you throughout the process.
