Music Therapy

Another way
into what you feel.

A creative, clinically grounded space to explore emotion, regulation, identity, and meaning. No musical training or performance experience required.

Some experiences
need more than words.

Music can offer a way to connect with emotion, memory, identity, and expression when conversation alone doesn’t quite reach it.

As a Board-Certified Music Therapist, I use music-based experiences when they are clinically relevant and aligned with your goals. Your preferences guide the work; you are not expected to perform.

What brings
you here?

  • Emotional expression and processing
  • Regulation, grounding, and reflection
  • Identity and self-expression
  • Experiences that are difficult to put into words
  • Creativity and experimentation
  • Insight, meaning, and connection

Your music.
Your pace.
Your process.

A session may include listening, lyric discussion, songwriting, improvisation, imagery, playlists, or music-assisted reflection. We choose experiences around your interests and needs.

The aim is to use music intentionally in support of therapeutic work. It is not music instruction, a performance setting, or an expectation to enjoy a particular type of sound.

The right kind
of support.

Music therapy is a credentialed clinical service. It can be offered as a distinct service or integrated into counseling when appropriate. Coaching has a different scope: practical goals, systems, and follow-through, rather than a clinical creative process.

A little more clarity

Common questions

Do I need to play an instrument?

No. You do not need musical training, talent, or an instrument to explore music therapy. The experiences are adapted to your preferences and therapeutic goals.

Can music therapy be part of counseling?

Yes, when clinically appropriate. Some clients use primarily conversation; others find it useful to include music and creative experiences. We can discuss what feels right for you.

A conversation is a good place to start

You don’t have to figure it all out first.

A free 20-minute consultation is a place to ask questions, talk about what you need, and explore whether working together feels like a fit.
