About me

I received MSc in Music Therapy from Queen Margaret University and continued working privately as a Music Therapist. I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (registration no AS018882). I am also a member of the British Association for Music Therapy.

I have experience working with children, young people and adults. I strive to find new ways in which people can engage with music to support their emotional and physical wellbeing and draw on various approaches including psychodynamic, attachment-based, relational and creative. Above all, I strive to listen and to find different approaches to helping the person express their feelings and needs, and to help them feel heard.

My main instrument is piano and, although I am a classical pianist by training, I love playing various kinds of music, including jazz, pop and anything and everything I hear in the movies, on the radio and so on. I also study classical singing and have a lot of interest in the connection between singing and health and vocal psychotherapy.

Before my music therapy journey, I was a lecturer at the University of Edinburgh and have experience working with people from different cultural backgrounds and walks of life.
