We all know that music can be soothing; it can reflect your mood or enhance it - it can even change it. But did you know that it can be used as therapy for a wide range of conditions? We wanted to learn about music therapy and how it works, so we reached out to Dr. Joy Allen, a licensed music therapist and thought leader in the field.
Joy is an accomplished clinician, researcher and educator with extensive experience in psychological health, pain management, and trauma-informed education and supervision. She presents at music therapy and music-and health-related conferences. She is the editor of Guidelines for Music Therapy: Adult Medical Care, authored chapters on adult oncology, pain management, and medical music therapy. She serves in numerous capacities for the American Music Therapy Association - and is the founding and acting director of the Music and Health Institute. We reached Joy in Boston, MA.
