Music weakens us in a way that
makes us feel strong - that is fundamental to me. During my years
of playing in bands and using music for different occasions, I have
often wished to combine the use of music with my work with people.
That is what I do now!
I obtained my Master's Degree in Music Therapy from Aalborg
University in 2010, and in 2013, I finished a complimentary
education of becoming a GIM[1]-therapist. My
experience with music therapy is based on work with different
client groups during the past 6 years. These groups include;
- Babies and kindergarten children
- Children and youths with autism and ADHD
- Children born deafblind
- Children and youths with bonding- and relation
difficulties
- Young adults and adults within the field of social psychiatry
and psychiatry
- Clients with significantly reduced physical and mental
development
- Seniors in elderly homes, such as elders with dementia
For information about how I work with the individual clientele
please refer to Examples.
In 2009 I co-organized the sixth Nordic conference for music
therapy and spent part of 2010 promoting music therapy in Spain.
Through presentations and workshops I continued this promotion in
Denmark during 2011, while building up my own company.
