A few useful answers

Frequently asked questions

Beginning private therapy can feel like a big step. If your question is not covered here, please ask.

Do I need a referral?

You can make an enquiry yourself. A family member, carer or professional can also get in touch, with the person’s knowledge and consent. If another service would be a better fit, Ember will be honest about that.

Where do appointments take place?

Most appointments take place in your own home, where things can feel more familiar and relaxed. Online appointments may also be possible when they are clinically appropriate.

Can family members or carers be involved?

Yes. With your agreement, the people who know and support you can be involved. Ember can help family, friends and care staff understand practical ways to make communication, eating and drinking easier.

How many sessions will I need?

There is no one-size-fits-all course. After the first visit, you will receive an honest recommendation based on your goals, needs and circumstances. You remain part of every decision.

Is Ember for children?

No. Ember is an adult speech and language therapy service, with a particular focus on acquired and progressive neurological conditions.
