​Hi, I'm Charlotte Yates. Welcome to my songwriting coaching service, Song Doctor.  I can help you write better songs.
   I can help you improve how you write and what you write. I can show you how to deal with things that stop you writing your best work. 

A music company executive once said to me 
'None of this is rocket science!'  That's absolutely true. But it does take time and effort, passion and love. 
​

I know because I've done it - sometimes really well, sometimes half-baked. Sometimes it's felt effortless and others, it's been like no one wants to know, and I mean no one! But I wouldn't have given it up for all the tea in China.  

I've worked on my own songwriting by trial and error before eventually digging deeper reading a myriad of songwriting books, blogs and magazines,  writing articles, giving workshops, working with pro​fessional songwriters, performing and recording for twenty-five years, and studying at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia and USA's Berklee College of Music.  

​I've learned how to help you write better songs.  Whether you're starting from scratch or a bit stuck, in full flight or in a rut - tell me how I can help you. I'm all ears!

Charlotte has a plethora of advice for new and seasoned songwriters alike that is written in a way that everyone can understand. Thanks, Charlotte.” Nat Ripepi, Perth, WA
