I’m pleased to share the launch of the new MT‑VOICE website: mt-voice.com! MT‑VOICE is a music therapy assessment for older adults, developed through a community‑engaged research study. MT‑VOICE integrates older adults’ lived experiences with clinical expertise.
The University of Toronto is ranked fourth in the world – and second among public universities – in the latest NTU World University Rankings utoronto.ca/news/u-t-fourth-…
I’m thrilled to share our latest open access article: MT‑VOICE: A Community‑Engaged Qualitative Study to Develop a Person‑Centered Music Therapy Assessment for Older Adults published in Journal of Music Therapy. academic.oup.com/jmt/article…
Small but might representation from @UofTMusic at the 18th World Congress of Music Therapy with over 1400 attendees. We are learning from the global community, sharing our knowledge in presentations, book launches and of course networking.
It's world music therapy week. In palliative music therapists may write songs with the dying to leave as legacy gifts. In rehab music might assist in regaining speech for someone with aphasia.
