“Heidi and Kate are phenomenal instructors. Their perinatal course solidified my path to becoming a perinatal music therapist. I learned so much from the 8 week course. The course provided me with interventions, assessments and related literature for my Master’s of Music Therapy research project, using music for hospitalized antepartum bed rest. Kate and Heidi were graciously available for supervision and to share their wealth of knowledge when designing my methods section for my research study. I am beyond grateful for the course and for their support in this beautiful field”

“The perinatal music therapy course is a unique course offering from two music therapists who have truly paved the way for the use of music therapy with this clinical population. Every year, I meet more and more music therapy students who get into the field because of their interest in working with babies in the NICU or mothers on the perinatal spectrum, and this is not a population most music therapists can speak to their experience with. Heidi and Kate truly know the ins and outs of the population but also make it applicable to medical music therapy in general, as well as NICU practice. This class is not to be missed.”

“I am a Certified Childbirth Educator at The Hospital of The University of Pennsylvania & Heidi has been a huge asset in my classes. I have invited her over the years to present lectures on music therapy & comfort measures in labor. The parents adore her kind and caring personality. Heidi is extremely knowledgeable in caring for a women in labor. I would highly recommend her expertise.”

“I attended Heidi’s presentation at the MARAMTA Regional Music Therapy Conference in March of 2016. The Title of this presentation was “Perinatal Trauma & The Music Therapist:Nurturing the Whole Self.” I really enjoyed this presentation and found it extremely informative. Heidi was engaging, friendly, and was very helpful when answering questions. All of her slides were explained fully, and I loved that she included examples of her own self-care routines in the presentation. I didn’t know much at all about music therapy with perinatal trauma going into this presentation, and Heidi explained it very well. The pacing of the presentation was great and it was a much-needed reminder about the importance of self-care in music therapy.”
