Bea has worked in NHS Trusts, providing both one-to-one and group music therapy in forensic and psychiatric settings, using trauma-informed practices such as Dyadic Developmental Practice (DDP), psychodynamic music therapy, Non-Violent Resistance (NVR), and Group Analytic Music Therapy (GAMT). Her work involves close collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, contributing to care planning, specialist assessments, and therapeutic interventions tailored to each individual’s needs.

Passionate about the transformative power of music, Bea has worked with adults with learning disabilities, led open-group therapy in acute mental health wards, and developed well-being initiatives for NHS staff through reflective practice and improvisation. With a strong foundation in psychodynamic and humanistic approaches, she creates a safe and inclusive therapeutic space where individuals can explore their emotions, develop resilience, and experience growth through music.
