Hey everyone, it’s Grace! Happy Music Therapy Month! This year marks my fifth year practicing music therapy in my home town of Ottawa, Ontario. I’ve had the pleasure of creating the symposium posts you’ve been seeing on Instagram and Facebook, and I’ve gotta say… it’s been a lot of fun! I’m so happy to be part of this hardworking team, and even happier to bring the excitement to life for the Inspiration Symposium coming in October.

Hi, it’s Kelly-Anne! I am a multi-passionate mental health professional: a certified music therapist (since 2013), crisis counsellor, and meditation instructor. Lately, I’ve felt a pull to rekindle the passion that started it all – music therapy. The Inspiration Symposium is my way of reconnecting with our amazing music therapy community and re-igniting my music therapy practice. It’s an honour to contribute to this very special event.

Hello everyone! My name is Becky Kurz and I have been in private practice in Ottawa for over 20 years. I am excited to join the enthusiastic symposium team! I am looking forward to the hands-on experience that the Inspiration Symposium is highlighting, so as to bring different ideas and techniques towards my own practice.

Hi everyone! I’m Rachel Ntambwe - a Certified Music Therapist from Ottawa. I began my career in this rewarding profession over 20 years ago. I love working with clients, colleagues, students, interns, and fellow MTA’s. Being part of the planning team for the Inspiration Symposium is very exciting.

Hi Everyone! I’m Elizabeth Francoeur, Certified Music Therapist, as well as a School and Clinical Psychological Services provider. I currently work in private practice in Orléans, near Ottawa, practicing both psychology and music therapy, serving mostly the francophone population. This Symposium is a nearly unique event as the sessions will be primarily experiential; this will surely inform and inspire other clinicians’ practices.
