I wanted to take a break from thinking about all of the snow and cold we’ve have been surrounded by these past few weeks to talk about LOVE! Not the mushy, gushy kind of love, but the love we have for music therapy, our clients, and music. In honor of this season of love, I wanted to spread some of the love-ly ideas and interventions my fellow Music Therapists have shared throughout the years. Here are 7 resources from other amazing MT’s to help get your Valentine’s sessions off to a great start!
