Learnings from the therapy room, made practical for you.

Attuned practice training and resources for educators, parents, disability support workers, and aged care teams.

What is attuned practice?

Before you teach, support or care for someone, you tune in. We call this ‘connection before outcomes’ and the foundation of attuned practice. It’s grounded in the therapeutic relationship and decades of research into what makes connection, relationships, and all outcomes such as communication, co-regulation and wellbeing, actually work. It’s intentional. And it’s something everyone can learn.

About us

Tuned In Connections was founded by Anita Connell, Registered Music Therapist and Postdoctoral Researcher, to bring what works in the therapy room into everyday settings.

If you work with or care for children, people with disability, or older adults, or you’re supporting someone who does, this is for you.
