Welcome
Music Therapists work creatively and therapeutically with music as the modality giving you a space to feel heard.
Music Therapy at Soulbird Therapies is a space for you to explore, reflect, & connect with yourself through music.
I offer Music Therapy for you & your baby, Supportive Music and Imagery for adults, and music therapy sessions for children
My Grandmother (“Oma”) shared Michal Snunit’s book “The Soulbird” when I was a child. The book describes there being a special soulbird within us that opens and closes drawers to our emotional world. Michal Snunit writes “We should try… to hear the voice of the soul bird, and listen to what it is telling us”.
Music is a universal language that we can all connect to.
