About

Our Mission

We believe that music therapists are leaders in healthcare, and with the right knowledge and tools you can achieve success in your career. Music therapy truly is a dream job for most of us – what better combination than applying our musicianship to health and healing? If you feel like this career is more of a calling than an occupation, then we get you.

Our mission is to help you become a leader in healthcare.

Our Values

Discovery

We embrace the power of discovering new opportunities, creative partnerships, and new collaborations. Music therapy is so unique that a strong growth mindset focused on discovery is essential!

Confidence

Here’s the secret — music therapists are already leaders in healthcare. It’s a matter of clear demonstration and articulation. Through our resources, we can help!

Leadership

We commit to helping music therapists initiate action in their workplace in order to meet the demands of the ever-evolving healthcare system.

Community

We recognize that our efforts alone are not enough to move the dial. We help to facilitate networking and crowd-sourcing solutions for the music therapy community.

Fun!

We use humor and light-hearted engagement to build community and morale as we all move forward together in our mission.
