The Rebecca Center is pleased to share that Dr. John Carpente, Founder and Director, was recently invited to guest lecture at Loyola University in New Orleans.

Dr. Carpente spoke with undergraduate and graduate music therapy students about music-centered practice, focusing on assessment, treatment,and evaluation. The lecture concluded with a discussion on the legacy of Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy, offering students a deeper understanding of how this tradition continues to shape contemporary clinical work.

The evening sparked meaningful dialogue, clinical reflection and inspiration as students engaged with videos and case material. Dr. Carpente shared that it was particularly moving to reflect on the work of Clive Robbins and Paul Nordoff, especially Clive, whose spirit continues to guide music therapy practice today.

A heartfelt thank-you to Dr. Victoria Vega for the kind invitation and for fostering such an engaging learning environment for future music therapists.
