Through every song, every session, and every shared moment, we witness what connection can do, especially in a world that deeply needs more of it. Music therapy is more than music. It’s evidence-based care, it’s human-centered support, and it’s a bridge when words aren’t enough. At its heart, this work is about showing up for one another.

We’re so grateful for every client, family, and partner who trusted us to be part of their journey. Here’s to even more healing, growth, and meaningful moments in the year ahead. 🎶✨

One more week to get all of the spooky classics ready for our pediatric Halloween Showcase and Trick-or-Treat event at Sutter Medical Center’s Children’s Center in Sacramento 👀🎃

We had a fantastic turnout for our recent showcase featuring the incredible Liedstrand Family Band, starring our dear friend and fellow music therapist Terrell, and his parents Harry and Cindy! 🎻✨
They brought something truly special to Sophie's Place: traditional acoustic fiddle tunes, a style rich with history and storytelling, passed down through generations by ear and heart. Our patients and families were captivated by the lively rhythms and the stories behind the music.
A huge thank you to the Liedstrand family for sharing your talent, warmth, and love of music with us. We can’t wait to welcome you back again! 💛🎶 Sutter Medical Center’s Children’s Center Sutter Health

Thank you to Ethen for your musical performance at our Sophie's Place showcase last week! Ethen is a professional pianist and elementary school music educator from the East Bay.

This summer, we had the joy of celebrating a very special milestone... 10 years of dedication, passion, and impact from two incredible team members: Dan and Becky! 💙🎶

Over the past decade, both Dan and Becky have not only shared their talents with our company, but have also uplifted their colleagues, supported countless patients, and helped advance the field of music therapy in profoundly meaningful ways. Their commitment is truly inspiring.

Our team came together for a celebratory dinner in their honor, where each of them received a portrait capturing their journey, serving as a reflection of meaningful connections, growth, and resilience built over the years. They also received a custom anniversary pin, a small but heartfelt token to recognize such a significant accomplishment.

Dan and Becky, thank you for everything you bring to this work and to our community. Here’s to the journey so far, and all the years ahead! 🙌✨

Farewell and good luck to our amazing intern, and soon to be amazing music therapist, Kyle Chang! 🎶✨ Our team has been continually impressed by Kyle’s warmth, creativity, and professionalism. He approached every session with curiosity and care, always eager to learn, asking thoughtful questions, and bringing fresh ideas to support each patient’s unique needs. His dedication to growth and his compassion for the children and families he worked with made a lasting impact.

Wishing him the best of luck on his exam and in all the exciting things ahead in his music therapy journey! 👏🎉
