About me
I am a British registered Music Therapist. I have over 4 years experience supporting people across the UK and in Portugal with a variety of client groups. Currently I am working both face to face in Lisbon and online. My main areas of experience are those with special needs, chronic pain, dementia, brain injury and who have experienced trauma. My aim is to help people reach their full potential now despite whatever difficulties they may face.

Approach
Music therapy uses a flexible approach around the needs of the client. In sessions music is used in various ways to support my client. Whether through activities such as listening, singing, relaxation meditation or song-writing. Some sessions may have no music at all.
In my work I draw on psychodynamic thinking, understanding more of what is going on underneath the surface of our lives. Understanding that different experiences have an effect on how we function successfully today.
Sessions do not require any musical skill, however a general enjoyment of music is helpful.
Where words fail, music speaks. Hans Christian Andersen
