Bucking the trend.

Increasingly, Music Therapists have to exercise more and more flexibility to demonstrate their impact.

At That Music Therapy Lot, we make sure your clinicians have a boat-load of CPD so that they can be both flexible, and effective.

We are also experts in assessment, working to create new and innovative assessment tools both in Music Therapy, and for wider multi-disciplinary teams.
