We had such an incredible time yesterday at the Women in Business Expo in Fair Oaks 💛

As a women-owned music therapy company, it meant so much to connect with inspiring local women-owned businesses, meet potential new clients, and see familiar faces who stopped by to say hello.

We’re so grateful for this community and all the meaningful conversations. Our Fair Oaks clinic is currently accepting new clients! Reach out to learn more about what music therapy can do for you or your family 🎶✨

Through every song, every session, and every shared moment, we witness what connection can do, especially in a world that deeply needs more of it. Music therapy is more than music. It’s evidence-based care, it’s human-centered support, and it’s a bridge when words aren’t enough. At its heart, this work is about showing up for one another.

We’re so grateful for every client, family, and partner who trusted us to be part of their journey. Here’s to even more healing, growth, and meaningful moments in the year ahead. 🎶✨

One more week to get all of the spooky classics ready for our pediatric Halloween Showcase and Trick-or-Treat event at Sutter Medical Center’s Children’s Center in Sacramento 👀🎃

We had a fantastic turnout for our recent showcase featuring the incredible Liedstrand Family Band, starring our dear friend and fellow music therapist Terrell, and his parents Harry and Cindy! 🎻✨
They brought something truly special to Sophie's Place: traditional acoustic fiddle tunes, a style rich with history and storytelling, passed down through generations by ear and heart. Our patients and families were captivated by the lively rhythms and the stories behind the music.
A huge thank you to the Liedstrand family for sharing your talent, warmth, and love of music with us. We can’t wait to welcome you back again! 💛🎶 Sutter Medical Center’s Children’s Center Sutter Health

Thank you to Ethen for your musical performance at our Sophie's Place showcase last week! Ethen is a professional pianist and elementary school music educator from the East Bay. His elements of whimsy and play entertained with his music was a treat for our patients and families. Thanks for the music, Ethen! 🎶
