About LA Therapy
Hi, I’m Lauren! I’m a Registered Music Therapist and trained Neonatal Intensive Care Music Therapist, passionate about walking alongside families through the joys and challenges of early parenthood.
After working in acute paediatrics, NICU and infant programs, I founded LA Therapy to provide warm, family-centred music therapy for infants, parents and caregivers during the perinatal period and beyond. My work is all about using music as a tool for connection, confidence and wellbeing – whether that’s helping a baby feel safe and calm, supporting bonding, easing ongoing hospital experiences, or giving parents space to breathe, process and feel supported.
At LA Therapy, I offer:
Individual supports – Tailored sessions for babies, parents, or the whole family, focusing on development, parent-infant attachment, NICU/SCN transitions, emotional wellbeing, and perinatal mental health. Music can become part of everyday routines – from sleep and settling to play and exploration – making life feel a little lighter and more connected.
Group programs – Come together with other families in a supportive, welcoming space.
- Connect & Bloom – A music group especially for families who’ve experienced a NICU or SCN admission.
- Mini & Me Melodies – A playful music and bonding group for parents and babies (0–12 months).
Whether you’re navigating pregnancy, adjusting after birth, or supporting your little one’s growth, my aim is to create a safe, nurturing space where music helps you and your baby thrive.

Is This Normal? The Emotional Rollercoaster of Pregnancy and Motherhood.
Mental health during pregnancy and postpartum is something many mothers don’t expect to struggle with, but it's more common than we think. In this interview with Lotus Health and Psychology, we explore what perinatal mental health support really looks like, why anxiety is often overlooked, and how to take the first steps even when you feel like you’re running on empty. Whether you're expecting, newly postpartum, or years into motherhood, these insights might be the nudge you didn’t know you needed.

Human Design for Motherhood: Understanding Yourself, Your Child, and Your Parenting
At first glance, you might wonder how Human Design is relevant to your motherhood journey, but I want to share with you the incredible wisdom that this modality offers. The way I see it, this support comes in three powerful ways. It provides guidance and understanding of yourself — how you’re wired and what your needs are. It offers insight into your child and practical guidance to parent in accordance with their unique nature. It strengthens the bond between you, helping you foster a relationship built on understanding rather than expectation.
