About

My name is Rebekah, I am a HCPC registered music therapist and professional saxophonist.

Music For Joy offers a range of Music Therapy services including individual and group sessions. Providing a person centred approach to practice and creating a supportive environment for musical discovery. Music for Joy is dedicated to using the power of music to promote the emotional and mental well-being of individuals. Using my training and work experience in healthcare I am creating a service that brings joy to people through music!

The name Music For Joy isn’t only about bringing joy to people through music but is also in memory of my wonderful Nanny Joy. Music played a pivotal role in my upbringing, largely influenced by my Nanny Joy and parents. I began dance lessons from a young age and I started playing saxophone at the age of 8. I have experience playing in jazz bands and orchestras.

I graduated from The Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts with a BA(hons) Music in 2019. Gaining experience in composing and producing music as well as further strengthening my saxophone skills. I graduated from the University of South Wales with a Masters in Music Therapy in July 2024. Throughout my training I had placements in a nursery, care home and hospice.

I have ample experience in healthcare settings. Alongside my studies I have been working part time as a healthcare assistant in a hospital. I have previous experience working as a care assistant for people living with dementia and end of life care. I have also worked as a support worker with autistic adults and children.
