Being music therapist is just a fancy excuse to learn new instruments. Client loves banjo? Cool, let’s do it! Cheap mandolin for sale? Why not learn that too! Research supports using client-preferred music in music therapy sessions. Bluegrass is popular in Appalachia, so it’s about time I learn a bit

As a board certified music therapist and lifelong musician, my musicality often seeps into my yoga classes. When I’m wearing my yoga teacher hat, I can’t help but be influenced by my knowledge as a clinician. Yoga classes are not music therapy, but you can always expect live music supporting pranayama and savasana & intentional music selections to support our asanas!

The beauty of being a music therapist is every day looks different! Toss yoga teacher in to the mix & you have the recipe for beautiful, wildly different days. Today consisted of an adaptive yoga class, a music therapy group to address PTSD symptoms, & a few individual clients where we did music-assisted relaxation & adaptive lessons. Today, I played harp, guitar, banjo, singing bowls, and the gong. I love that each day looks so different & that I’m constantly challenged to grow as a musician and therapist by my clients! Interested in learning more about how music therapy can support your goals? I’m taking new clients! Feel free to send me a message to learn more.

I’ve spent the day working on a research project and just came across such a beautiful part of my personal process, totally unrelated to my project. Guided Imagery and Music can feel like a very abstract process to those who haven’t experienced it. It is hard to imagine the experience or how it might help, so I offer this tidbit from my personal healing journey as an example. In 2022, my therapist passed away. She was a flutist who loved to play music in the woods. Even though I never heard her play, I felt a connection to her because of that (and the work we did, of course). Her passing was a surprise to me & coincided with another loss, so I was in a rough place. I found a new GIM therapist & during a session, I imagined my first therapist playing flute along to Vaughn Williams Fantasia on Greensleeves. We were in a familiar space in my imagination, in the woods behind a friend’s family home where they honor family members who passed. I wasn’t prompted to imagine this, but this is where my imagination took me in the music. This experience helped me process her passing & I later visited that space and left a flute playing angel ornament hanging from a tree to honor our work together. The GIM experience and my later ritual helped me get the closure I needed. This is one of the many experiences that helped me heal, helped me fall in love with this modality, and convinced me that this is a service I want to offer the world. GIM is such a beautiful process!

Music therapy is an individualized process that uses music to support your healthcare goals. Each session looks different based on a person’s goals. Music is both our tool and our co-therapist. Music is what drives our sessions.
