When words alone are not enough, music can provide a safe and supportive way to connect and work toward personal growth. For people who are articulate and intelligent, connecting what you know to what you feel can sometimes be surprisingly difficult.

No prior experience in music is needed to fully benefit from music psychotherapy. I specialize in analytic music therapy work and vocal psychotherapy practices, using music to gently explore patterns and relationships in a clients life. Music and words together help me develop a trusting relationship with my clients and work toward goals that will strengthen an understanding of self and support well-being.

Guided Imagery and Music Sessions Guided Imagery and Music (GIM) is a therapeutic process using music and a trained facilitator to create an environment to facilitate personal insight that provides answers and guidance for significant life issues. The Bonny Method of Guided Imagery and Music (BMGIM) is a “music centered exploration of consciousness which uses specifically sequenced music programs to stimulate and sustain a dynamic unfolding of inner experiences” (AMI, 2000). GIM supporters believe: imagery and music are therapeutic agents; transpersonal and psychodynamic aspects are part of therapeutic process; and expanded awareness results in major therapeutic benefits (Burns & Woolrich, 2008). GIM is based upon humanistic and transpersonal theories that emphasize the attentiveness of the individual and the influence of music on ego development. The classical music programs in the BMGIM provide structure and direction for the experience (Bonny & Pahnke, 1972). Essentially music is the impetus that releases unconscious material such as feelings, images, and memories for use in therapy. Supervision and Mentoring Supervision is an important practice in which all clinicians should be actively involved. The purpose is to assist the student or therapist to learn from his/her experience and progress in their clinical skills, develop confidence and work authentically.
