Teresa Wenhart - Music, Brain, Psychology
For everyone
"Music is your passion – but sometimes inner blocks, doubts, or stress get in your way? Maybe you struggle with stage fright, perfectionism, or negative thoughts. Perhaps challenging social relationships or your own self-criticism are weighing you down."
"I support musicians in strengthening their confidence, balance, and presence. Whether you want to prepare for a performance, grow personally, or bring more ease into your daily life as a musician – together, we’ll find the right path for you."
"My coaching is for everyone who..."
✔ wants to improve their self-awareness and self-management,
✔ wants to learn how to deal with fears, negative thoughts, or pressure to perform,
✔ are highly sensitive or neurodivergent and are looking for personalized strategies
✔ want to develop healthy coping strategies for stress and emotions,
✔ want to resolve inner and outer conflicts and find their own path.

Who I am and what I stand for
I have studied Psychology (BSc, MSc), Musicology, and Cello (postgraduate studies) in Munich and Zurich, and obtained my doctorate in Neuropsychology of Music at the Music University in Hanover (Institute for Music Physiology and Musician Medicine). From a very young age, I had two great passions: music and science. I have been actively involved in music since early childhood, and starting in 2013, I have been engaging in research and clinical neuropsychology related to topics in musician health, neuroscience, and hearing.
Bringing together science, art, and health is my greatest passion. That's why I write a blog on these topics, give lectures, conduct workshops, and starting in 2024, I will offer (neuro-) psychological individual support for musicians and music educators, including psychological supervision of teaching.
