Looking for simple ways to bring calm and connection into your home? Try this music activity with your child this weekend:

1. Sit together on the floor and use whatever instruments you have—drums, a keyboard, even pots and pans!
2. Take turns making up rhythms or melodies.
3. Mirror each other’s music. This helps with listening skills, following directions, and feeling safe together.

Tip: You don’t need to be a musician and there’s no “wrong” way to create music. The experience is what matters!

Music brings families closer and transforms everyday moments into shared joy.

Celebrating every milestone! 🎶

This week, our young friend Liam played his first complete song on the piano—a moment filled with joy and pride for him and his family. Music therapy provides a safe, supportive space for neurodivergent children to express themselves, grow in confidence, and achieve new goals.

Parent testimonial: "Music therapy has been the single most effective therapy my daughter engaged with from age 18 months to age 5. The sessions have unlocked her voice and brought so much happiness to our family."

Stories like these remind us why we do what we do!

How does music help rewire the brain?

Music therapy isn’t just about playing instruments. It’s grounded in science—showing that rhythm and melody can spark new connections in the brain, especially for neurodivergent individuals and those with neurologic conditions. Every drumbeat or guitar chord is carefully chosen to support communication, movement, and emotional growth.

Curious how this works for your family? Book a free consultation to see how neurologic music therapy can make a difference. 🎶✨

Self-criticism and negative self-talk begin as early as age 5. 😔

By age 7, girls are already expressing dissatisfaction with their appearance, body and abilities.

By age 10, anxiety and depression are skyrocketing.

This isn't a phase. This is an epidemic.
And it's happening EARLIER and FASTER than ever before.

Your child is absorbing messages about not being "enough", not smart enough, pretty enough, good enough. And they're believing them.

But here's what I know after 20+ years of working with children: they don't need MORE criticism. They need TOOLS.

That's why I wrote this book, Jacob's Journey: Taming My Icky Thoughts with Calm Melodies. 🎵

As a child and family therapist specializing in music therapy this book was written to support young children drowning in self-doubt and negative thoughts.

Inside this book, your child will discover:

✨ Original songs that rewire negative thought patterns
✨ Practical exercises that build confidence and resilience
✨ A roadmap for parents to support their child's healing
✨ Real hope that change is possible, starting TODAY

This isn't another workbook. This is a lifeline.

ENGAGEMENT & DISCOUNT: Comment with one negative thought your child struggles with (anxiety, perfectionism, self-doubt, etc.) and we'll offer you a 10% discount code for the book!

Your child deserves to believe in themselves. Jacob's Journey and personal story teaches them how.
