About Music Therapy

Music therapy is a psychological intervention which uses the musical skills of the therapist to support a client's mental health.

Music therapists have to train for two years to get an MA in Music Therapy from one of 8 different teaching courses.

Music therapy is a protected title by the Health and Care Professions Council.  You can be prosecuted for practicing music therapy without being registered with them (don't worry, I am!)

Anywhere and everywhere!  Music therapists are versatile, working in schools, hospitals, houses, and even parks! I work in Waltham Forest, Walthamstow, E17, and East London.

You can find out more about music therapy in the UK at www.bamt.org and at NHS England's site on the Allied Health Professions.
