She practised for seven years in private hospitals and clinics. She worked with many medical practitioners, including the renowned pediatrician and general practitioner – Dr. Winsome Miller-Rowe, who practises music therapy as a natural adjunct in the healing process. The use of music therapy as a natural healing art incorporates meditation and deep relaxation techniques to improve patients’ (adults and children) state of health. Over many years working with her, this experience in music therapy and stress management, in addition to peer education and youth counselling in public health, has enhanced her skills in supporting patients, colleagues and the wider community.
