Private Speech Therapy for Adults
How We Work
Get in touch
Contact Adult Conversations by phone, email or contact form to discuss your concerns and ask any initial questions.
Short initial discussion
A brief phone call can help clarify the main difficulties, whether support is needed for communication, swallowing, or both, and whether private speech and language therapy is appropriate.
Initial assessment
An assessment is then arranged at home or online, depending on individual needs. This helps identify strengths, difficulties, and the most appropriate next steps.
Recommendations provided
Following assessment, clear recommendations are given. These may include advice, strategies, and guidance for the person, family, or carers. A report is often provided to support you.
Therapy plan
If ongoing input is needed, a tailored therapy plan can be arranged based on the individual’s goals and needs with further reassessment to measure outcomes and progress at the end of therapy.
