| Bio |
Metro Music Therapy is owned and operated by Mallory Even, MT-BC and certified NICU Music Therapist. Mallory is originally from the Orlando, FL area, and earned her Bachelor’s degree in Music Therapy from the Florida State University. Upon graduation from FSU, Mallory and her husband moved to the Atlanta, GA area. For two years before starting her practice, and for three years after, Mallory also worked as a music therapist in an adult and geriatric inpatient psychiatric unit located in Snellville, GA.
Mallory holds the Music Therapist-Board Certified (MT-BC) and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Music Therapist (NICU MT) designations, has completed the 30-hour training in Counseling Skills for Music Therapists, and has been a member of the American Music Therapy Association (AMTA) since 2002. She is also a member of the Music Therapy Association of Georgia (MTAG) and the Down Syndrome Association of Atlanta.
Since starting the practice in late 2007, Mallory has provided individual and group music therapy services in specialized schools and a wide variety of healthcare settings in the Metro Atlanta area. She has started new music therapy programs for The Governess School, Breakthrough Recovery Outreach, VITAS Innovative Hospice Care, The Bridge of Georgia, The Covenant House Georgia and The Center for Children and Young Adults.
Mallory’s most recent accomplishments include the launching of a new Music Therapy marketing program called MMT PayPer, the Metro Music Therapy expansion to Orlando, FL, and Mallory and her team have opened the MMT Academy - a music therapy continuing education academy for professional music therapists that is approved by the Certification Board for Music Therapists. She has presented at National AMTA conferences, was invited to be a panelist on the Careers in Counseling & Therapy panel at the University of Georgia, and also leads music therapy wellness sessions for the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta staff retreats.
In the summer of 2013, Mallory volunteered for Metro Music Therapy to become the host of the Atlanta Chapter of a nationwide instrument drive called, “Beat Teams.” You can read more about this initiative and the work Beat Teams and Terra Rising Records are doing around the country in Mallory’s blog post, “Beat Teams – Atlanta Chapter.” |
