Learnings from the therapy room, made practical for you.
Training and resources that help educators, families, and care teams enhance connection and inclusion through rhythm, creativity and attuned practice.
What is attuned practice?
Every meaningful interaction starts the same way. You notice, you tune in and then you respond. That’s attuned practice. We believe that this supports ‘connection before outcomes’, and that from just small moments of focus on this, we can shape communication, ‘play’, wellbeing and relationships. Our thinking is grounded in decades of research and therapeutic practice into what makes it all work. We feel that attuned practice and a focus on connection is an intentional skill that everyone can learn.
About us
Everyday moments between people matter the most. Everyone deserves access to learning and skills that make those moments more connected. Tuned In Connections was founded by me, Anita Connell, Registered Music Therapist and Postdoctoral Researcher, simply because I’ve spent years seeing and feeling ‘small moments’ within therapy transform relationships.
Today my work is making those moments practical for educators, families, disability supports and aged care teams. That means supporting you to use creativity, rhythm and attuned practice to support your everyday connections.

Small ideas, practical strategies and research translated into everyday practice. Every resource we create follows the same path. We’ve researched it, practiced it in our therapy and community work, and translated it for educators, parents/carers and care teams.
Everything is designed to enhance your connections and inclusive communication through rhythm, creativity and attuned practice.
