Through a relationship-centered approach and with a focus on neurodiversity, memory care, and disability services, my goal is to foster emotional and physical well-being, striving to understand each client’s world—their interests, passions, and the music that brings them joy.

What is Music Therapy?

Music therapy is an allied healthcare profession that uses music to help people achieve goals like reducing anxiety, improving communication, enhancing memory, or increasing motor skills. Tailored to individual needs, sessions are led by Board-Certified Music Therapists (MT-BC) and may include songwriting, instrument improvisation, lyric discussion, and guided listening.

Individual Music Therapy Sessions

Receive personalized music therapy in the comfort of your home, facility, or preferred location. I custom-tailor sessions for all ages and abilities, focusing on achieving your unique goals.

What happens in a music therapy session?

  • Singing, exploring instruments, or moving to music to express yourself and improve coordination.
  • Mindful listening and relaxation techniques to promote calm, reduce stress, and process emotions.
  • Creating music in the moment to explore feelings safely, using instruments or voice in a supportive, non-judgmental space.
  • Creating original songs to navigate life experiences, build self-worth, and tell your story.
