Music Therapy of the Rockies (October 2022)

Earlier this year, Music Therapy of the Rockies reached out to tell me about their organization and mission. I knew right away it was a great fit for a Twice Upon a String grant, and today I was able to follow through and support their important cause of providing music therapy for those who have experienced trauma, including veterans and survivors of domestic violence and sex trafficking.

Music Therapy of the Rockies retreats are “run by Board-Certified Music Therapists and incorporate mindfulness, self-expression, and therapeutic songwriting with professional songwriters — plus, the gift of a guitar to learn new coping skills.” The Aspen, CO based organization has held 14 retreats in 5 locations around the United States. Retreat locations include: Nashville, TN, Dickerson, MD, Milford, Iowa, Cleveland, OH, Atlanta, GA, and an upcoming retreat is being planned for 2023 in Missouri.
