The Tune In To Teens and Attention & Perception E-Courses will soon be going on hiatus for the foreseeable future. It makes me a little sad to say that. These have been passion projects for me - putting my knowledge and passion about music therapy with tweens and teens into these E-Courses, hearing your positive feedback and [...]
Over the past few weeks, I've shared how I use pop songs in a therapeutic way with my middle and high school students: To practice affirmations through rap with Bow Wizzle. To work on attention and perception skills using songs by Imagine Dragons and OneRepublic. To move and groove using songs by BTS and AJR. [...]
I couldn't be more excited to share with you that The Attention & Perception E-Course is OPEN for enrollment (and available at a discounted rate), this week only, January 24 - 28th.

Today I’m going to shine a spotlight [...]
Do the words "cool" and "auditory perception technique" sound like oxymorons? Do you automatically think "bland" and "boring" when you think of developing auditory perception techniques? Do you wonder what auditory perception techniques even are?? Fear not, I will explain everything here. Last year, I created a new online course called The Attention & Perception [...]
One thing I hear very often from music therapists and educators who work with teens is that they have trouble finding musical experiences that are considered "cool" by their clients and students. I can relate 100%. I worked with children for so long that it was hard to crawl out of that headspace and create [...]
