About Us
Music Therapy Services in Perth, WA
In music, the backbeat is an emphasis on a pulse on an offbeat rather than a strong beat.
At Backbeat Creative Health, we work to follow the unique beat of your drum - regardless of what beat you clap, tap or groove along to.
Our services include personalised, evidence-based music therapy interventions to support your health and wellbeing goals, working across the lifespan from early childhood to older adults.
Registered Music Therapists
Mei Lyn Woon - Director, Registered Music Therapist
Mei Lyn has been a Registered Music Therapist with the Australian Music Therapy Association since 2022, working across the lifespan in the community and clinic settings. Mei Lyn has developed music therapy programs in the community with private practices and worked in dementia education, passionate about delivering workshops, supporting and education families and talking about the ways music can support health and wellbeing.
With a passion to combine musical expression, creativity and authentic and supportive healthcare approaches, Mei Lyn chose to pursu music therapy to facilitate meaningful experiences and support the strengths of others.

Outside of work, Mei Lyn can be found food hopping with friends, stand-up paddling on the river, on the dancefloor doing salsa or line dancing, researching new recipes, and of course, committing musical crimes in jam sessions on the guitar, keyboard or the percussion instruments in her work trolley.
