SUMMARY:Moving from Chord-play to Melody-play: Expand Your Guitar Playing Today
DESCRIPTION:Today’s MT-BC is increasingly called upon to deliver instrumental music in medical and hospice/palliative care environments. Many of us were trained to play melodically on the piano with chord accompaniment\, but were in no way prepared to do this using the guitar. In this course\, Center instructor Carolyn Koebel\, MM\, MT-BC will specifically show you how to access the melody inside the (basic) chord shapes you are already familiar with by identifying the location of the notes of the triad inside the chord\, the location of the scale within the chord shape\, and applying this to religious/folk/popular/world music repertoire that we routinely interact with. Truly\, you can transform your playing very swiftly by attaching meaning to chord shapes\, and  re-organizing your picking patterns and accompaniment. Participants will earn 3 CMTEs. \nObjectives: \n\nParticipants will expand their capacity to play melodically within harmonic structures on the guitar for multi-genre repertoire\nParticipants will review basic chord theory to add meaning to chord shapes and to more quickly activate extended chord repertoire\nParticipants will broaden the musicality of their accompaniment by further defining bass and melody strings and increasing variation of finger-picking and strum patterns\n\nSchedule: \n\nReview importance of clinical competency and need for guitar proficiency\nLearn how to access the melody with inside basic chord shapes\nApply this to religious/folk/popular/world music repertoire\nPractice\nQuestion/Answer\n\nParticipants will receive the login information and directions to join the webinar 24hrs prior to the start time.  The Center uses the Zoom platform for all webinars.\n**All times listed are EST. Please note time difference for the start of this webinar if you do not live in the EST zone:\nCST- 4:00pm\nMST- 3:00pm\nPST- 2:00pm \n  \n$75.00Read more

DESCRIPTION:Grieving children and teens are an often under-served population in our society today.

SUMMARY:Adult and Seniors Grief & Loss Music Therapy Institute - Sacramento
DESCRIPTION:Grief is universally experienced as a condition of being human\, and all of our clients\, regardless of the populations we serve\, experience grief and loss. The journey of loss impacts our entire world – socially\, emotionally\, physically\, and spiritually\, yet we are often ill-equipped to understand the over-arching impact of grief in our clinical work. This course focuses on the needs of bereaved adults and seniors in a variety of settings including hospice care\, nursing homes and assisted living facilities\, mental health agencies\, and acute medical settings. Music therapists will learn current trends in bereavement counseling and the theories that influence current clinical practice. Focusing on adults and seniors\, participants will understand how co-morbid mental and physical conditions can impact and be impacted by grief experiences and will identify the symptoms of prolonged or complicated grief disorder and treatment interventions. The arts are a powerful medium for healing\, and this course adds art-based interventions as well as a depth of music therapy interventions. We focus our efforts on music therapy-based support groups for the bereaved\, develop our own bereavement support group session plans\, and practice our skills in role plays under clinical supervision. Understanding that our client base is becoming increasing diverse\, this course includes an overview of Asian culture and US inner-city culture. Participants will earn 30 CMTEs by completing this course. \nCourse Objectives include: \n\nRecognize stages\, tasks\, and theories that frame bereavement counseling.\nIdentify emotional\, spiritual\, social\, and physical needs of grieving adults and seniors.\nLearn music therapy interventions to support grief work with adults and seniors.\nPractice grief-related music therapy techniques under clinical supervision.\nLearn how to incorporate multi-modal creative arts therapies into bereavement care.\nUnderstand how diverse cultures experience grief.\nDevelop music therapy-based bereavement support group session plans for adults and seniors.\n\n$475.00Read more	\n			\n \n[woocommerce_social_media_share_buttons]

SUMMARY:Adult and Seniors Grief & Loss Music Therapy Institute - Denver\, CO
DESCRIPTION:Grief is universally experienced as a condition of being human\, and all of our clients\, regardless of the populations we serve\, experience grief and loss. The journey of loss impacts our entire world – socially\, emotionally\, physically\, and spiritually\, yet we are often ill-equipped to understand the over-arching impact of grief in our clinical work. This course focuses on the needs of bereaved adults and seniors in a variety of settings including hospice care\, nursing homes and assisted living facilities\, mental health agencies\, and acute medical settings. Music therapists will learn current trends in bereavement counseling and the theories that influence current clinical practice. Focusing on adults and seniors\, participants will understand how co-morbid mental and physical conditions can impact and be impacted by grief experiences and will identify the symptoms of prolonged or complicated grief disorder and treatment interventions. The arts are a powerful medium for healing\, and this course adds art-based interventions as well as a depth of music therapy interventions. We focus our efforts on music therapy-based support groups for the bereaved\, develop our own bereavement support group session plans\, and practice our skills in role plays under clinical supervision.  Understanding that our client base is becoming increasing diverse\, this course includes a focus on Hispanic music repertoire development and an overview of how we can better serve diverse cultures. Participants will earn 30 CMTEs by completing this course. \nCourse Objectives include: \n\nRecognize stages\, tasks\, and theories that frame bereavement counseling.\nIdentify emotional\, spiritual\, social\, and physical needs of grieving adults and seniors.\nLearn music therapy interventions to support grief work with adults and seniors.\nPractice grief-related music therapy techniques under clinical supervision.\nLearn how to incorporate multi-modal creative arts therapies into bereavement care.\nUnderstand how diverse cultures experience grief and develop Hispanic music repertoire.\nDevelop music therapy-based bereavement support group session plans for adults and seniors.\n\n$475.00Read more	\n			\n \n[woocommerce_social_media_share_buttons]

SUMMARY:Child and Adolescent Grief & Loss Music Therapy Institute – Chicago\, IL
DESCRIPTION:Grieving children and teens are an often under-served population in our society today. While we have begun to realize that they need attention to work through their grief process\, little formalized counseling is made available in our communities nationwide. Music therapists have unique opportunities to make a difference in schools\, places of worship\, mental health agencies\, hospitals\, and hospices. This course provides an easily-replicated curriculum for grieving children and adolescents empowering music therapists to start grief support groups\, provide family-based and individual bereavement counseling\, and participate in grief camps. Using a variety of theories and methods\, these curricula will be demonstrated and then practiced in role-play settings. Our capstone experience is spending a day at Camp Kangaroo\, a music therapy-based grief camp\, observing and participating in music therapy sessions for bereaved children and adolescents. This hands-on\, dynamic course will provide music therapists the tools they need to serve this population or simply be aware of the needs within their communities. Participants will earn 30 CMTEs by completing this course. \nCourse Objectives include: \n\nUnderstand the developmental needs and abilities of grieving children and teens.\nRecognize the emotional\, physical\, social\, and spiritual impact of grief among children and teens.\nDevelop a multi-modal\, creative arts therapy approach to serve these needs within a psychotherapeutic framework.\nLearn music therapy-based curricula and practice music therapy interventions under clinical supervision.\nObserve clinical music therapy practice at a children’s grief camp.\nDevelop music therapy-based session plans to serve grieving children and teens.\n\n$450.00Read more	\n			\n \n[woocommerce_social_media_share_buttons] \nCourse description and schedule
