Private referrals

Private referral to music therapy may be appropriate for a wide range of clients, including children and adults with learning disabilities or autism, older adults living with dementia, adults with mental health problems, adults with an illness or disability, or anyone who may wish to access additional therapeutic support.

There is no “typical” music therapy session, and my person-centred approach can be adapted for the needs, requirements and aspirations of any individual. A referral form must be completed prior to beginning therapy so that I can begin to understand your needs and your reasons for wanting music therapy. Each individual’s needs and reasons for attending will be assessed in the first session, following which some aims for music therapy will be produced, in collaboration with the client (or with the client’s carer/parent if appropriate). These aims may change or develop over time as the therapy progresses.

Please send an email (hdmusictherapy@protonmail.com) or fill in the contact form to begin a discussion about your particular situation and how I can help you.
