Ep 89 Emi Booth

Emi talks with Davina about their recent debut at the BAMT
Conference in May 2024 where they spoke about their experiences
of being a deaf music therapist.


Here are Emi's words of introduction:


My name’s Emi and my pronouns are they/them. I’m a deaf music
therapist who currently works in older people’s mental health in
the NHS. I graduated from the University of Derby in 2022 with my
master’s in music therapy, where I became passionate about making
music therapy more accessible to deaf people. Ever since, I’ve
been working on publishing my independent scholarship on how my
experience of music impacts my work, and I hope to use my career
and research to platform the different ways disabled folks access
music and music therapy.
