About

Therapy that starts with being heard.

Ember Room is a small practice of psychotherapists and psychologists who believe change begins in a relationship, not a protocol.

We work with adults, teenagers and couples navigating anxiety, loss, burnout and transitions — or simply the sense that something needs attention. No forms to fill before you’re ready, no rush to name the problem.

You feel stuck and can’t say why

A heaviness without a clear name is a reason to come.

Something big just changed

Loss, a move, a diagnosis, a new baby, an ending.

Your relationships keep repeating

The same fights, the same distance, the same ache.

You want to know yourself better

Curiosity is reason enough. No crisis required.

Our people

The people in the room

Six practitioners, different trainings, one shared belief: the relationship is the treatment.

How it works

Three quiet steps, no pressure.

01

A first conversation

Fifty minutes, in person or online. Tell us as much or as little as you like.

02

Finding the right fit

We match you with the practitioner and approach that suit you — or point you elsewhere.

03

Working at your pace

Weekly, fortnightly or short-term. You can pause, change or stop at any time.

The house

Rooms with soft light and thick walls.

A converted bakery on a quiet street: four rooms, one long table, and a kettle that never quite cools. Every room has daylight, sound-proofing and a chair you’ll want to sink into.

Daylight in every room

Sound-proofed walls and doors

Tea, always

Questions

Gently answered.

Still wondering about something? Write to us — a real person replies within one working day.

Do I need to know what to talk about?

Is everything I say confidential?

Can I have sessions online?

How long does therapy take?

What if my therapist isn't the right fit?

Your first session is just a conversation.

You don’t need to prepare, or know what to say. Come as you are and we’ll take it from there.

Come as you are.
