Normally it is not covered by a CGL policy. However some carriers can add this coverage by endorsement. The recomendation would be to buy a stand alone professional policy. they normally provide broader coverage. Review the policy carefully as these can be very complicated and are normally written on claims made basis instead of a occurrence form. Make sure you clearly understand the differences or you could be caught without coverage at some point in time.
