Join us for our annual Student Passages at the Midwest Region conference in Iowa City, IA on March 21st at 8 AM! The student-led event will feature a keynote speaker (TBD), student presentations, and community music making!

Let's Talk: The Hard Parts of Music Therapy

The Fall Symposium will be a one-day conference designed to provide an opportunity for Midwest Region music therapy students to gather together for community-led learning, opportunities to share and networking.

This event, Let’s Talk: The Hard Parts of Music Therapy, offers a candid exploration of the challenges and complexities faced in the field. Through open discussions, personal reflections, and collaborative problem-solving, we’ll delve into the less talked-about aspects of music therapy, from managing client resistance to navigating emotional burnout. Come prepared to share experiences, gain practical strategies, and connect with peers who understand the highs and lows of this rewarding profession. Let’s tackle the tough topics together and support one another in our journey to becoming effective, resilient music therapists.
