LPMT, MT-BC

On May 1, 2012, Governor Nathan Deal signed SB 414 into law. This law established licensure for Music Therapist in Georgia. We owe our deepest gratitude to the following people and organizations for their tireless efforts to gain state recognition in Georgia:
        -Rachel Coon-Arnott       
        - Kirby Carruth
        -Jamie George 
        
-State task force members                
        -American Music Therapy Association (AMTA)
        -Certification Board for Music Therapist (CBMT)

​Currently, there are only 10 states that have some form of state recognition. All professional Music Therapist should have the credentials LPMT, MT-BC, to ethically practice in Georgia. (LPMT, MT-BC: Licensed Professional Music Therapist, Music Therapist-Board Certified)

Welcome to the
​2021-2022 Interns!

On Friday, September 10th, we welcomed (left to right) Riley Sue, Gracie Anderson, Shannon O'Donnell and Logan Bietsch for our 2021 Music Therapy internship. They join us from various colleges all over the United States and will be with us until the 1st of April. We are excited to have them with us as they finish the last requirement of school before joining the professional world!

IN LOVING MEMORY
Picture
In early August 2020, we lost another dear member of our music therapy family, Missy Worden. Ms. Missy was with our MT team for 22 years. We are heart-broken and know that we will never replace her joyful spirit and impeccable talent. In 2012, we also lost our beloved David Symons. 

How Does it all Differ?
