In a previous blog post, I shared one of my favorite brand new ideas (for either virtual or in-person learning) - Hip Hop Meets Classical. If you haven't checked out that post, do it now! It is sure to be a hit with your school-age and teen clients (and is also a great way to [...]
Every so often I get an email from Google telling me the top searches that bring people to my website. To this very day, the top search that brings people to my site, is "virtual music therapy session ideas." That tells me that you are in the same boat I am - still leading many, [...]
Although many music therapists and teachers have gone back to facilitating in-person sessions, I am still 100% virtual. I have to say, I am enjoying the additional tools and technology at my disposal. One of the tools I am loving and frequently using in my sessions with school-age and teen clients is video.

Are we really approaching the eight month mark of leading music therapy sessions and lessons virtually?! It's hard to believe, isn't it.

If you're looking for musical experiences that would work well during teletherapy (or in-person!) [...]
Have you ever been on a call with a potential new client when your child yells from the bathroom "I'm ready for you to wipe me!!" Or, had to take your child to the ER in the middle of your new E-Course launch? Or, how about this - have you ever had to homeschool your [...]
Over the past few weeks, I’ve loaded up the blog with all kinds of ideas for your virtual music therapy sessions and adapted lessons. Many of these ideas (like the Mini Musical Bios that you’ll find in the Virtual Music Therapy Session Planning Pack), were created just for teletherapy. I found my brain being stretched [...]
Earlier this week, I walked out of my virtual music therapy sessions glowing. The sessions had been great, the group of teens I worked with were totally engaged in our experiences, and it almost felt like there was no "online" barrier.
