Spring has sprung here in Pennsylvania! When I lived in Miami, it was hard to tell the difference between the "seasons." It was either hot or hotter, rainy or more rainy. I am thoroughly enjoying watching the transformation of Winter into Spring as I take my morning walks now, and love incorporating Spring-y vibes into [...]
Have you had a chance to catch up on the last two Session Idea Blasts? The first was about a Musical Game called Music Man that allows you to easily insert your clients' and students' preferred singers, bands, and songs into it (leads to instant engagement!) The second was a Pop Song Listening Game. This [...]
It's a snow day here in Pennsylvania - a far cry from the 80 degree Januarys we experienced when we lived in Florida! Before I go outside to shovel and sled with my kiddos, I wanted to write up a quick blog to continue the Session Idea Blast Series I started last week. In the [...]
Happy New Year! Things have turned chilly here in Pennsylvania. We have a snow storm on it's way at the end of this weekend, which means my kiddos will inevitably have a snow day on Monday! 'Tis the season of an erratic school schedule. Nonetheless, I have big plans for later on in January - [...]
Holiday season is in full swing over here (our Christmas tree is up and in my sessions we are singing ALL the holiday songs). 🌟 Nonetheless, I am peeking ahead to 2025. How about you?

I can't believe I'm writing this, but summer is winding down, and the school year is right around the corner. Today's post will be the last in my Summer Session Sneak Peek series, where I've been giving you a little glimpse into my music therapy sessions with middle and high schoolers with autism and related [...]
How's your summer been going? So far, my kiddos have done tennis camp and music camp. We've sprinkled in lots of pool time, play dates, and even some blueberry picking, (followed by blueberry pancakes for dinner, which I highly recommend!) In addition to these fun summer outings, I've also been busy here on the blog. [...]
Summer is here! Can’t you just smell the grill and taste the gooey marshmallows? Last weekend, my kiddos and I went away with some friends. We rented a cabin in the mountains, went rail biking, and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows over the campfire. My mouth is watering just thinking about how good the s'mores [...]
I don't know about you, but I love to take a peek at what other music therapists are doing, especially if they work with a similar population as I do (middle and high schoolers with autism and related disabilities). It helps give me some fresh ideas, which are sometimes needed after nearly TWENTY YEARS in [...]
