Malpractice Insurance for Mental Health Providers
Proud Partners


CPH Insurance is proud to serve New Mexico Counseling Association members in support of mental health professional growth and development.
Having served mental health professionals for 20 years, CPH Insurance insures students, provisionally licensed interns and fully licensed professionals with malpractice insurance.
As someone who has dedicated their career to helping others, you should be free to focus on client care without worrying about a threat to your private practice. With malpractice coverage from CPH Insurance, you can have peace of mind knowing you’re protected in the event of a claim or suit. Even if you don’t necessarily have a lawsuit or board complaint on your hands, we offer consultations with an attorney so that you can speak with someone to avoid any such situation. This is just one of the many benefits that come with a mental health malpractice policy.
Members of NMCA receive a reduced administrative fee ($10 as opposed to $20) – a $10 savings! To receive that reduced admin fee, click the link about to Get A Quote & Apply.
