Welcome! I'm a music therapist in Berlin interested in the role of music in culture and mental health. I work with people individually and host community groups to listen, share, and discuss what music means to us. Get in touch to learn more about events in Berlin or music therapy services.
Thanks to Berlin Neurodivergent Community for helping to organise a really nice event this weekend. A great evening of active listening and discussions about the roles music can play in our lives. Excited to host another one soon!

I support this move from one of my all time favourite bands. Trying find more ethical ways to listen to music than Spotify. Not just to better support artists but thinking about where my money is going. What do you think is a good alternative? Pulling out my old cd collection?
