About the event
Introducing NLMT's latest training, aimed at arts therapists, healthcare providers and those interested in finding out about the theory behind music therapy. As a team, we're influenced by psychodynamic theory and how our past experiences inform our present - but how does this theory fit into our post-pandemic society?
Music and Psychodynamics, running online over six Tuesday evenings in September and October, will take you through some key concepts of psychodynamic theory, linking them to music, art, therapy, politics and society.

Bringing together lecturers from music therapy and psychotherapy, there will be a plurality of approach while always being linked to how therapy works.
Tuesday 12th September - On Countertransference with Aditi Dhar
After appearing on the Music and Psychodynamics panel last year, Aditi is back with a full session on countertransference, and how somatic countertransference appears through her work in the trauma unit at the Tavistock Centre. Aditi Dhar works as a Counsellor at Birkbeck College and runs an event series of psychodynamic lectures for the College.
Tuesday 19th September - On Transference with Ann Sloboda and Priya Vithani
Ann will facilitate a live clinical workshop, with material examined in real time to illuminate how transference manifests within sessions - and how our thoughts within sessions, and how we think about them, reveal themselves in our everyday lives. Ann Sloboda is Head of Music Therapy at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama and a psychoanalyst in private practice.
Tuesday 26th September - On Projective Identification with Marianne Rizkallah
When is it transference and when is it projection? When is it countertransference and when is it projective identification? What is Bion talking about when he uses alpha and beta elements? Marianne is going to answer everything you ever wanted to know about projection and projective identification in a FAQ style presentation, with case studies from across her working life to bring the theory to life. Marianne Rizkallah is the Director and Founder of North London Music Therapy and, while currently on hiatus from clinical work, specialises in working with adolescents and adults with mental health concerns.
Tuesday 3rd October - On Winnicott's Holding Theory with Dr. Lisa Margetts
Lisa will talk about her doctoral work in a school in Belarus, and how using Winnicott's Holding Theory enabled teacher-student relationships to grow and develop. Dr. Lisa Margetts is Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Roehampton, music therapist, researcher, educator and author. She specialises in music therapy consultation research with special educational staff teams overseas and in the UK. Her current clinical practice is with children on the autistic spectrum.

Tuesday 17th October - Music and Psychodynamics: In Conversation
With increasing waiting lists and huge pressures on finance and time, where is the place for deeper, more thoughtful work in the 21st century healthcare workplace? A panel of music therapists and psychotherapists representing the NHS, service providers, education and the third sector will discuss how psychoanalytic ideas fit into these areas of modern practice.
