EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS:

I am a Board-Certified Music Therapist, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Fellow of the Association for Music and Imagery, and Certified in the Montello Method of Performance Wellness.

I’ve been a therapist for over 20 years and have worked with various populations, including prenatal/postpartum, ASD/developmental delays, and anxiety disorders. I have specialized in performance wellness for over 12 years.

I’m also a fellow artist, so I understand from the inside out the unique challenges of life in the arts. I am a classically trained musician, voice-over actor, music director, and composer/lyricist.

I have written and performed music and lyrics for TV, radio, film, and stage. I am one-half of the musical theater writing duo Whiskey and Fall Weather (with Eric C. Webb). Our current projects in development are #JustBeYou (a children’s musical about bullying) and Breakup (an irreverent anti-romantic musical comedy). I am also Music Supervisor for the musical in development, Windywoo and her Naughty Naughty Pets, by Wendy Ann Gardner.
