Find a speech and language therapist
January 15, 2008
There are many ways you can find a speech and language therapist. If you are looking for an NHS speech therapist get in touch with your local hospital. They should be able to put you through to the correct department. For children either get in touch with your health visitor or, for older children, try your local Primary Care Trust.
For both children and adults you could also check your local NHS Primary Care Trust website. Information about speech and language therapy services should be listed. If you are sure that a referral is required to the speech and language therapy department this usually has to be done through your GP. The GP is a good point of contact for onward referrals. Be aware that most speech and language therapy departments in the NHS now have waiting lists.
If you would like private speech and language therapy we are currently able to offer therapy in Essex and Suffolk. However we are now building a database of therapists in other areas so if you live outside our catchment area please get in touch and we may be able to help you.
