Using music in a theraputic fashion has shown tremendous results over the last several decades. It is shown to improve mood, help restore motor function, and add to quality of life. I have worked in music therapy full-time since 1997, and have continued to study (working toward my MT-BC) the use of music to achieve the greatest effects in enriching the lives of the elderly.
I am availble as a perfomer who has done many live shows spotlighting the songs and stylings of suchsingers and writers as Frank Sinatra, George Gershwin, and Glenn Miller.
I am alo available as a private therapist for hourly sessions that include playing instruments, learning new songs, movement to music, and singing old-time favorites. Goals are set and progress is documented according to individual needs. Thus a fulfilling and rewarding experience is obtained, with many finding their time spent with music to be the highlight of their day.
