Join me on Sunday morning at the Mid-Atlantic Flute Convention to explore your relationship with flute through music and art. We’ll talk about the role of music in personal identity and trauma. We’ll explore two well known pieces from the flute repertoire through Music Imagery, an approach combining guided imagery with music listening and art creation to explore your inner world.

Therapy is political. In light of our current world, I want to reiterate that Peak Music and Wellness stands with immigrants, trans people, q***r people, indigenous people, people of color. I believe women and stand by survivors. I support people of all religions. I believe that we deserve peace, equity, and equality. Unfortunately, we live in a time where that can feel unattainable. As a therapist, I believe it is important to stand against systems that oppress, disenfranchise, and harm my patients. ICE has no place in a peaceful, equitable world.

How do you choose the music you listen to? Music is such a unique experience. Both sides of our brain our engaged when we listen to music. Memories and associations can be deeply tied to music. We can intentionally select music that validates our present mood, modulates how we feel, evokes memories, helps us feel support, etc. What do you consider when you are choosing music?

One of my passions is working with Veterans. I served as a Marine Musician before becoming a music therapist & love being able to give back to the Veteran community. Happy 250th Birthday Marines!
