When I was a young woman, I had a dream so vivid I remember it to this day. I was with a crowd of people who had gathered around a clearing near the top of a mountain. The sun was shining, a cool breeze was blowing, and the Earth was fresh and green. The air was alive with tangible joy as we held hands and made a circle. We all started singing beautiful songs with exquisite harmonies. As we sang, we could see the notes intertwining in the center of the circle and spiraling up into the clear blue sky. The music rose higher and higher until it reached the stratosphere and began circling the globe. We were healing the Earth with music!

So imagine my joy when I discovered the ā€¯Music for Healing and Transition Program" and learned that music definitely IS healing, and that I could serve in that capacity. As a Certified Music Practitioner (CMP), I provide live therapeutic music at the bedside, constantly assessing and adjusting to meet the patient's needs in the moment. Therapeutic music can distract from painful procedures, boost the immune system, reduce stress and anxiety, relieve loneliness, lower blood pressure, increase the tolerance of pain, aid sleep, stabilize heart rate, calm babies, and aid in a dying person's transition out of this life.

I have 40 years of experience as a vocalist, sharing music with churches, weddings, funerals, and special events. I have participated in Choral Societies in the United States and Europe, worked with musical theatre, and led song circles in many different settings. Currently I'm working as a CMP at Concord Hospital in both Concord and Franklin, NH, providing therapeutic music for mental health, dementia, ICU, and recovering patients.
