Kath Fathers is a Welsh musician and writer who trained and first practiced music therapy in the UK before moving to Syracuse in 2014. .
She is inspired by the uniqueness of each individual and passionate about the transforming power of music to offer a voice to the voiceless and a connection for those feeling isolated. Born in Wales and therefore coming from a very small nation with a minority language, she understands both the challenges and the value of ensuring that every voice is heard, however small. 

Kath has music therapy experience with a range of populations both in the UK and the US: children with multiple and complex disabilities (including ASD); people in palliative care in hospice along with their families; the elderly in nursing homes (including those with dementia and Alzheimer’s); mental health within the community and in hospitals; private practice working as music psychotherapist.

Kath is the founder and executive director of Singing Soulutions, promoting the many benefits of singing for our physical and mental health, and she is an adjunct professor at Syracuse University.
