Is therapy tax deductible? Excellent question. The short answer is, yes. Happy days.
Therapy is tax deductible.
The only caveat here is - who is this important for? Because therapy is to tax deductible only to people who fill out a tax return and do their own taxes, like people who run companies or their own businesses. If you fill out your own tax return, then you know who you are and if this is you, no matter what kind of business that you do, therapy is tax deductible.
If you don't fill out your own tax return, then unfortunately you won't be able to claim back money from the taxman for your therapy sessions. This is because your money has already paid its tax.

But, it's good news for the business owner and people who pay their own taxes after they get money. Therapy is tax deductible. And this is because the purpose of therapy is to raise your awareness and improve your well being, which helps you do your business. Therapy is meant to support you in your life and your work. Therefore therapy can be marked down as continued personal and professional development.
Therapy is tax deductible because its you continued and professional development. Woohoo. Happy days. Therapy helps to improve your life and work and helps to keep the tax bill down.
