I am a new clinician with over 30 years of mental health experience. I have worked on a crisis hotline, doing home based treatment, partial hospital, and in three inpatient hospitals. I started working with children as a teacher and switched to mental health because my love was always helping people with making positive changes in their lives. I worked with families, adolescents, and then adults at Butler Hospital. I recently took a position at Brightside Behavioral Health as a clinician. I truly enjoy being a part of the therapeutic process, providing a supportive, caring, non-judgmental setting where growth can occur.

it is important to pay close attention to early intervention, it is during this crucial period that strides made during recovery are reinforced. There are many different kinds of early intervention treatment options which can help prevent relapse and expand upon existing coping strategies. Making the decision to go to treatment is complicated. I help people in recovery change how they see themselves as they work to improve their self-image and increase their self-esteem. They must be open to cope with their thoughts, feelings, and motivations that will reveal themselves as they face the causes of their issues.

Life challenges and uncontrolled circumstances, made you become a woman of resilience.

This life has become exhausting. You are ready to increase self-worth, stop people pleasing, to stop placing unrealistic demands on yourself, and you want to release your perfectionist and over-achieving tendencies. The constant pressure brings on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. These things no longer serve you and your are ready for change.

Music Therapy

How does music therapy work?

A music therapist will begin by assessing the client’s specific needs and getting a sense of their musical ability and interests. Musical training is not required, and clients of all ages can benefit from this type of therapy. The therapist will then make a plan for how to achieve the client’s therapeutic goal(s) using a range of receptive (e.g., listening to a song) and active (e.g., drumming in a group) music therapy techniques.

What are some common music therapy techniques?

Music therapy usually involves listening to music (either live or recorded). Music therapy clients may also make music on popular instruments, such as the piano, guitar, and hand drum, or sing. Sometimes music therapy can include guided imagery. A music therapist may ask clients to improvise on the spot or even compose their own songs. Dancing or moving to music can be an effective intervention to help clients feel more fully grounded in their bodies and remain in the present moment.

How does music therapy help with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)?

Music therapy can be a valuable creative outlet for clients with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) who have trouble putting their painful feelings into words. Listening to music can be relaxing while making music as part of a group provides plenty of opportunities to connect with other people. In addition to its mood-boosting effects, music therapy can help clients build resilience and overcome PTSD symptoms that may interfere with their daily lives.

How long does music therapy take?

Music therapy sessions generally last between 30 and 50 minutes. They can be scheduled in advance (for example, once a week) or can be done on an as-needed basis. Some clients will only require a handful of music therapy sessions to achieve their goals, while others may need months or longer, depending on their specific concern.
