Thanks. Looks like a serious and evidence-based field. I am happy to suggest
this as options for certain students. Going to the music therapy association
web sites however, made me think that music therapists can cure or help with
ingrown toe-nails, balding, and all sorts of other maladies! I am more
impressed when I go to professional sites and they point out research
suggesting where/when the therapy is NOT efficacious. And so it goes....Gary

Last year I interviewed music therapist Kamile Geist from Ohio
University. She says in the interview that anyone who wants to
contact her to talk about the field of music therapy can certainly do
so. Might send your student to her. Here's the link:
