About
I am an HCPC-registered Music Therapist, trained at Roehampton University, with a rich musical background as a first-study singer at the Royal College of Music and an extensive career in performing, teaching, and vocal coaching. I bring these experiences into my psychodynamic music therapy practice and have worked with children, young people, adults with acquired brain injury, and older adults in acute mental health settings. I believe in the transformative power of music to give voice, confidence, and enable connection for every person I work with.
My clinical approach is warm, creative, and relationally focused. I work responsively to create safe, inclusive spaces where music supports expression, communication and meaningful change. Confident within multidisciplinary teams, I contribute to assessment and planning and advocate clearly and passionately for clients’ needs. I am motivated, reflective, and committed to widening access to music therapy across clinical, educational, and community settings, bringing energy, curiosity, and a genuine belief in the power of connection to every aspect of my practice.
