Therapists then must recertify every 5 years ✨️
Music therapy is relevant for all stages of life and may occur in individual or group settings. Music therapists complete assessments and then create treatment plan goals to be worked on in therapy. Music therapists can be found working in homes, long term-care facilities, hospitals, group homes, daycares, schools, and more!🏘

>Mothers in postpartum - learning how to effectively use music for themselves, as well as using music to bond with their baby and significant others 🤱
>Individuals with varying disabilities- including, but not limited to, Autism and Down syndrome
>Individuals with various forms of Dementia 🫶
Her passion for music therapy began after her mother discovered the field. Alicia then observed a music therapist in the Rochester area and immediately fell in love. Alicia felt the connection between music and people especially through their self-expression and connection to each other through the music making experience🎵
