In Episode 159 of An Evolving Man Podcast, I’m joined by Professor Helen Odell-Miller OBE, one of the UK’s leading pioneers in music therapy.
Helen has spent decades working with trauma, attachment, mental health and emotional healing through music. She also worked closely with the late Joy Schaverien, whose work on boarding school syndrome transformed the conversation around early separation and institutional trauma.
In this episode we explore:
- What music therapy is and how it works
- Why music can help where words cannot
- Helen’s own boarding school experience
- Joy Schaverien’s ABCD model
- Hidden abandonment and dissociation
- Why resilience is often misunderstood
- How music can support connection, regulation and healing
A thoughtful and powerful conversation.
