About Ember Room
“Healing happens between people — in the slow, ordinary work of being understood.”
Our story
A bakery, two chairs and a kettle.
Ember Room began in 2019, when two therapists rented the back room of a closed-down bakery on Rua das Laranjeiras. The ovens were long gone, but the warmth seemed to stay.
Today we’re six practitioners across four rooms. We’ve grown, but we’ve kept what mattered from the start: no rush, no scripts, and enough time for the real conversation to arrive.

How we work
Three things we won’t compromise on.
Your own pace
No fixed number of sessions, no pressure to perform progress. You set the rhythm; we keep it steady.
Relationship first
Techniques matter, but trust matters more. We invest in the connection that makes change possible.
Confidential, always
What you share stays in the room, within clear legal and ethical limits we explain from day one.
What we value
Small words, held seriously.
The house
Come and see if it feels right.
A first consultation is a no-pressure way to meet us and the space.
