Hospice and Palliative Care
I regularly work with SEND, PMLD and palliative care communities.
This is based on an original, evidence-based music educational framework, with a focus on sensory sensitivity and creative connection. Programmes can be delivered 1:1 in my private studio or with small community groups, health and social care settings.
These offerings work at an intersection of psychology, music education, singing for health and voice pedagogy. For a full list of my qualifications and certifications, please get in touch.
I am currently available weekly through Naomi and Jack’s and monthly via the With Music in Mind programme at The Amber Trust.
“The work I deliver is highly sensitive and is shaped around therapeutic education.”
The work I deliver is highly sensitive and is shaped around therapeutic education. My work is uniquely crafted from evidence-based research, practical experience and specialist training.
Our time together focuses on connection, comfort and emotional well-being through music, sound and shared creative moments. The content is collaborative and person-centred, with no pressure to talk, sing or ‘perform’ - shared space is the priority.
For all new families, I arrange a pre-consultation. This helps us to understand the needs and goals behind our potential work together, to ensure we find the right fit for you. If you wish to find out more, please get in touch here.
My ethical promise is explicit about the difference between therapeutic educational practice and clinical therapy. I hold a BPS Accredited Psychology degree and appropriate music qualifications; however, I am not a clinical therapist. If you are looking for music therapy, I highly recommend the British Association of Music Therapists as a starting point in finding the right clinician for you.
“Thank you so much, Abi. I have never experienced anything like your session with us; a very special moment.”
