Hi, I'm Mary, a registered Music Psychotherapist and qualified Neurologic Music Therapist working across London, currently completing a PhD at Cambridge on music therapy for children and young people with ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder).
I blend psychotherapy with creative, neuroscience-backed tools such as Neurologic Music Therapy to help clients process challenges, regulate emotions, and heal when words alone aren’t enough. Whether you’re seeking traditional talk therapy or a more experiential approach, we’ll work together to untangle the roots of your challenges and build a path forward.
No music experience is required. Therapy with me is collaborative, client-led, and grounded in neuroscience. Depending on your goals, we might:
1) Explore the past (psychodynamic therapy) to understand how early experiences shape your present
2) Regulate the nervous system (trauma-informed therapy)
3) Improve mood, focus, and emotional expression (NMT)
Sometimes words are just not enough to express how we feel, or perhaps, some thoughts, memories and experiences are just too painful or difficult to talk about. Music touches us emotionally where words alone can’t, and I will provide you with a more nurturing and safe environment to express yourself, and to help you heal and grow.
