I Feel the Need to...Host a Webinar!

One of the things that I absolutely love more than anything else in the world (other than actually DOING music therapy) is talking about music therapy, and I am feeling the need to host a music therapy student webinar!

If you are a music therapy student reading this right now, please consider signing up for this free webinar all about how to find your internship. We're going to meet on Thursday, September 5, 2019 at 7pm (Central Time) for about an hour to talk about everything internship application process! Click here for the registration link. There are more details about the "what" we'll talk about here.

If you are someone who knows a music therapy student (or better yet, a group of them), please pass on this link to the registration form. I can accommodate 24 separate computers for this webinar, so that means as many people as you can get to watch from one computer can participate in the live webinar.

 If you can't make this webinar, contact me at this link, and we'll set up a time and a place that is convenient for you. There is a small fee associated with scheduled webinars.

If this webinar topic doesn't much interest you, but you'd like to get information about the other topics we offer, please consider signing up for our newsletter. You will get information on our on-demand courses, our live webinars, and all sorts of therapeutic music experience ideas and products.

I hope to "see" you or some of the MT students that you know on September 5th!

The Anticipation Builds...

Ask any school teacher about the week before break and you will get the same response each time - ugh. We are entering that week at my place of work. I am dreading it, but am also looking forward to it. My plan is as follows - clients choose what they are going to do in (some) sessions. Last week, we played Name That Tune. Now, I always fix the games where I get points when my students display unsportsman-like behavior or inappropriate interactions with each other or where I stump everyone in the room with my music selections. I also always cheat at the end with the reckoning of points. Always. I lost. We set it up so that they get to choose what happens in the next session (with guidance from me) if they win. If I win, it's business as usual. Three of my groups will be choosing what they are going to do during their therapy hours. I anticipate lots of karaoke and movie watching during those three hours. I am getting ready for a short week as well as experiencing the week...

There's Always Something...

I am starting to fill up the gaps in my music therapy schedule with individual music therapy treatment times. This is a great feeling. I'll start individual treatment on July 11th when we come back for our second session of our Extended School Year. I'll get things going for three weeks, reevaluate, and then start up again when the regular school session starts. I am excited about getting back into this type of therapy. I've missed it, but there's something else going on. I'm a bit scared. You would think that my 23+ years of being a therapist would make things lots easier for me to jump back into this type of therapy interaction, but I am a bit scared still. I think most of these feelings have to do with forced light duty and almost a year of being out of my comfortable routine. I know that some of these feelings are rooted in fears of being hurt again. I don't want to be hurt again. I know that many of these feelings are somewhat irrational, but they sti...

Going on a Squeegee Hunt

One of the songs that I sang over and over and over again as a song leader in Girl Scouts was "Going on a Squeegee Hunt ." Now, you may be wondering what a "squeegee" is - good question! It is an imaginary creature that was probably invented by some obscure girl scout in Southern California many, MANY years ago! Anyway, similar to the traditional children's song of " Going on a Lion/Bear/Tiger Hunt ," the song takes you through a sequential process over, under, around, and through various obstacles towards a goal. Today, as I am sitting here writing, I am thinking about the poor squeegee being hunted. It is just in its cave, trying to do its squeegee things without interruption, when suddenly, BOOM! Some Girl Scout arrives to poke it! The poor squeegee does what it can - it jumps up and chases the Girl Scout all the way home!! This has not been a good work week. It is amazing how people will make mountains out of molehills. Here is the deal. I se...
