Tessa Ackerman has over 30 years’ experience working in both the NHS and the private sector. Since 2011 I have provided a specialist independent service (ACT for Yorkshire Ltd) for adults in Leeds and across the Yorkshire region with communication, voice and swallowing difficulties. I work with people following a stroke, head injury, with a progressive neurological condition (e.g. Parkinson’s disease) and also with voice disorders, offering flexible therapy programmes tailored to your individual requirements. I am an LSVT certified clinician. I work for private individuals and for case managers. I am a recognised provider for most health insurance companies. I offer clinical supervision to individuals and groups. Visit: www.actforyorkshireltd.co.uk for further information.
