🌱 WHO WE ARE
•Creative Vibes Music Therapy is an anti-capitalist, anti-oppressive, and client-centered team committed to offering equitable and liberatory care through music.
•We believe that therapy is inherently political—our relationships, our work, and our presence in systems all carry power. We use that power intentionally to advocate for better conditions for both our clients and ourselves. That means pushing back against injustice, fighting for accessibility, and ensuring that our own labor is respected and valued.
