We are currently seeking music therapists to take part in group discussions (focus groups) to develop a specific group music therapy intervention for chronic depression in the community. Four focus groups are planned to happen in East London during July 2016. If it is not possible for you to attend one of these groups, we can also arrange an individual interview at a time to suit you.
