English
| Français I'm a music therapist. Anyone who needs different space to explore - whether to process what they are experiencing, or to develop a creative project - can benefit from my general practice. In my specialty, I often work with young children who are manifesting developmental differences or symptoms like anxiety, and with older children who are encountering obstacles related to a diagnosis or to trauma. I also offer support for young adults, including adapted piano and composition lessons at all levels. My approach is neuroaffirming and participant-led.
With a colleague, I also offer team-based music therapy for children that takes into account Amelia Oldfield's work with families, Nordoff-Robbins, and Willy Apollon's theory of child development. Sessions are currently offered privately and at local group practices. To learn more about this, click the website link included on this page.
Whatever your interest, or your need, intake sessions are always free of charge so that we can explore working together. My practice is a welcoming space for people of all ages, cultures, orientations, and abilities.
