Tara Del Borrello is a Registered and Neurologic Music Therapist, registered through the Australian Music Therapy Association. After completing her Master of Music Therapy, Tara spent one year at St John of God Murdoch hospital treating high acuity patients with a range of health issues, ranging from eating disorders, to oncology, palliative care and those undertaking neuro-rehabilitation. There she developed and implemented the hospital’s first-ever music therapy program, which operated across three wards and was exceptionally well received by staff, patients and family members alike. The program has since been successfully continued.

Tara also facilitates a weekly music therapy program at Perth Children’s Hospital for patients in the mental health ward.

In her private practice, Tara now works in both one-on-one and small group settings with clients of all ages and abilities. The majority of her clients are neurodiverse, and or living with other psychosocial, intellectual and physical disabilities. Tara is passionate about evidence-based, integrated health care, and works with each individual differently to maximise their unique potential. She uses person-centred, strengths-based and NMT therapeutic approaches to help her clients achieve personalised non-musical goals. All of her practices are underpinned by compassion, curiosity, and humility.
