Class Experience

Class will be taught via live video chat. A board-certified music therapist will use slides, lecture, audio/video clips, and live examples to provide a brief overview of the field of music therapy. Topics covered will include history of music therapy, current status of the field of music therapy, different approaches and methods, types of applications and interventions, and required training and an overview of various options for achieving this. The course will be taught from a perspective mainly focused on the United States. The class will be primarily lecture format, though ample space for questions and conversation will be provided.

This course only runs upon request. I am happy to run it for one learner, if the family is comfortable with this. Please message me directly if you are interested, and we can schedule a time. Note: I am not notified if families use the "request a time that works for you" feature. Please message me directly.
