ABOUT

 

Welcome

 

Thank you for stopping by and take time to read.

Nice to meet you.

I offer music and art  therapy sessions in Oxford and London, to individuals, couples and groups. ​

As a researcher and a scholar I know that 'I don't know',  and this is why I  like  to  apply a 'beginner mind' approach to life, studies and therapies.

You will lead your process and I will walk beside you to support the discovery of your talent, strength and vulnerability.

Your inner wisdom will guide your growth and wellbeing.

The eyes of my  inner child help me to connect to my higher self and look at the world, the knowledge, the people, the experiences with wonder and curiosity.  It helps to live fully in the present moment, to appreciate life and feel connected with  humanity and the planet as a whole.

Languages for the sessions:  Italian, English, French and MusicArt!

What Paola says

I have dedicated most of my life to  the inclusion of children and young people in mainstream school using an approach called

Music Therapy for Inclusion - MTI

 I believe that  inclusion is "The Royal Path to Peace"

Group music therapy for inclusion (MTI) has been one of the most successful tools for integrazione scolastica- inclusion, together with other specific didactic and pedagogical strategies. 

As music therapist  I have been researching and teaching, while working with groups and individuals in the fields of education and mental heath and 

Research demonstrates that  group Music Therapy for Inclusion, is an effective tool to develop emotional and social intelligence and promote inclusion, when applied in schools.

Inclusion is a process that starts whitin, it is a process of inner deep democracy that allows us to integrate our hidden 'disliked parts' and therefore teaches us how to relate with the diverse world around us.
