Anna Lowenstein: Music Therapist

A woman with curly brown hair and a thoughtful expression holding a violin

I am a BAMT and HCPC registered Music Therapist based in North-East London.

I trained at the University of Limerick where I developed a specialism working with people living with chronic pain.

Prior to training, I worked for 10+ years for London music services, specialising in working with children and young people with additional needs.

I work with children and young people in their homes, or with adults at a private garden studio.

Find out more about what I offer here and to view the the studio’s accessibilty for details.
