Music therapy with related talk therapy services can help people of all ages.
I offer clients wellness services, mental health therapy, and medical and neurological rehabilitation services that use traditional talk therapy as well as music and the creative arts as treatment tools. My goal is to help you, or your child, develop the skills and abilities to feel your best physically, mentally, and emotionally. Sessions may include education around the role of trauma, past experience, and neurochemistry in how we feel and act now, mindfulness exercises, relaxation practices, creativity-based activities, and the development of individualized plans to help practice healthier thought and behavior patterns.

There is no prerequisite for successful participation in music therapy, and no two sessions are alike due to the individualized nature of my work.
As a parent, you want what is best for your child. You're thinking about reaching out to a professional for support and resources to help your child thrive. Music Therapy offers a unique and creative approach to help your child or teen develop healthy life skills and achieve positive outcomes. As an expressive therapy, music can be a highly motivating, non-threatening medium where children can bypass obstacles with verbal language and express themselves indirectly through music.

Therapy focuses on the essential areas of the complexity of human behavior and development in a collaborative therapeutic setting. Therapy provides the opportunity to process challenges an individual may be struggling with by identifying coping skills and therapeutic resources. Transparency and vulnerability are necessary to approach sensitive personal experiences, and most importantly, I believe barriers can be broken with awareness, accountability, education, and resources. As a Licensed Master Social Worker, my educational background and work experience has enhanced my ability to treat various challenges and trauma.

Being a human can be tough. My practice is centered upon helping people deepen their human experience and live a more embodied, present life. Many of my clients are creative people hoping to harness their power, individuals who have experienced early childhood trauma, or people who simply feel "wounded". Our “body memories” & old stories can often be limiting us from our fullest potential of healing. With a neuro-experiential framework, I offer specializations in life transitions, attachment wounds, relational healing, addictions and self soothing behaviors, building self worth, LGBTQIA+ issues, and managing complex emotions.

Are you searching for a therapist who gets and affirms the effects of family dysfunction? Who embraces the powers of queerness, neurodivergence, and/or having a creative mind? My therapy practice aligns with my personal values of anti-capitalism, social justice, and living “unconventionally.”  ​I support clients with a holistic perspective so that they may find the relief they need with family conflicts, relationship issues, addiction, life transitions, meaning/purpose distress, and connection to self. My approach to therapy is different than the norm, as I believe support should reflect our authentic selves & our social realities.

Life is MESSY. It's serving chaos, stress, and curveballs left and right. And unfortunately… the messiness is probably more common than “everything going like it should.” Still, you don’t have to navigate the mess alone. If you feel lost, overwhelmed, or have no idea what to do next— let me be a partner on your path. We can work on cultivating and increasing your access to the strengths you already have inside, but may not always know how to tap into right now. I do this work because I feel passionate about supporting people as they navigate challenging life circumstances and create a life that is authentically meaningful.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed since something happened? Do you have distressing thoughts and feelings that you have a hard time controlling? Have you not felt like yourself in a while and do others say you have been different? Other people might not understand how life has been difficult for you lately which makes it hard for you to feel understood and known. Past trauma can make it hard for people to cope with everyday life and activities. This can make it difficult for you to feel like your life matters, feel confident in your decisions, and feel comfortable in your relationships with others.

Yo! I’m Payton, I’m an openly queer + nonbinary human and my pronoun are they/she! I think that humans are the coolest. My philosophy as an Identity Doula + Healing Practitioner takes into consideration that every human and every situation is different, thus unique tools and approaches are required for unique people and things. Sessions with me will go beyond standard talk therapy, as it is my personal and professional opinion that humans often heal with art, movement, visuals, embodiment, activities, and music better than they do with standard talk therapy alone. (Try to think of this as fun and exciting, not scary or awkward!)

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.
