Having served mental health professionals for over 20 years, CPH & Associates can protect your career with up-to-date legal resources and competitive rates.

As a mental health provider, you’ve dedicated your career to helping others, and you should be free to focus on clinical care without worrying about a threat to your private practice. With CPH & Associates malpractice insurance,  you can have peace of mind knowing you’re protected in the event of a claim or suit, a grievance from a regulatory board, plus many other coverage  benefits. Because there can be a variety of needs when it comes to malpractice insurance for mental health practices, we provide a policy that goes beyond just providing a lawyer.

Whether you operate a one-person LLC or large corporation, it’s important to cover your business entity with corporate coverage. A corporate policy will cover your LLC or corporation, you as the owner, and (if applicable) your employees.

• Why do one-person businesses need to apply for corporate coverage?

If a claim or lawsuit arises from your professional services, it’s possible for your business entity to be named in the lawsuit. An individual policy will not provide any coverage for your business entity for claims, incidents, or lawsuits arising from your professional services.

• Will a policy under my individual name cover my business if I’m the sole owner?

No, an individual policy will only cover you as an individual provider and does not cover your business entity, even if you are the sole owner or employee.

• Can I simply add my business as an additional insured on my individual policy?

No, you cannot add a business entity you own or operate as an additional insured. You must upgrade your policy from individual to corporate coverage in order to appropriately cover your business entity.

• Will having corporate coverage change my premium?

Corporate coverage is rated differently than individual coverage, but does not always guarantee there will be an increase. Your corporate application is subject to underwriting review.

If you have questions before purchasing a policy or need assistance with an existing one, we have licensed insurance agents available by phone to lend knowledgeable support. At CPH & Associates, we treat professional liability insurance for private practices similarly to how you treat your clients. We want to support you professionally so you can be the best therapist to your clients and provide a lasting impact on the lives you touch.
