Therapist insurance

Protect your livelihood with tailored therapists insurance

Therapy is a diverse sector, home to a wide range of specialists and practitioners. Whatever your personal specialism, this is work that can directly improve lives and relationships – making it  valuable and rewarding in equal measure.

However, no matter how professional, experienced and careful you are, unforeseen incidents can have serious consequences, potentially threatening your reputation and even your livelihood. That is why professional insurance for therapists is so important. The right cover should step in to protect you when the worst happens – for instance helping with defence costs and compensation should an unhappy client launch legal action against you.

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.**

• Protection
  We will help you find professional liability insurance that is designed to meet your individual needs, covering your work in a wide range of therapies. Underwritten by Hiscox, this is comprehensive cover – not just for professional errors and accidents, but for crisis containment and a range of other risks too.
  
• Care 
  We understand therapy is a diverse profession – so you need therapist insurance that is tailored to you and your practice. For that reason, the Oxygen Professional Risks team will take the time to understand the work you do and the risks you face - then using that insight, build the tailored therapist insurance you need. 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 therapists' insurance, but if you do, we have a dedicated claims team on hand to help support you throughout the process.
