Online Therapy for Caregivers

Find peace in the past, present, and future.

There are many challenges in the role of caregiver, but there are few as challenging as balancing caring for others and caring for yourself.

I invite you to take a moment to be still and appreciate yourself just as you are. You are here because you are a caregiver, a sacred role.

In taking this step of finding support, you are taking care of yourself, and the well-being of those you care for through ensuring your well-being.

Mindfulness-Centered Music Therapy offers individualized ways to assist caregivers in developing resources and practices to cultivate gratitude, build resilience, and reconcile grief with present moment joy.

Strengthen your relationship with yourself through music and mindfulness.

It is best to leave expectations behind and practice openness to the unknown. When we feel down and depressed, we are practicing the feeling. That feeling becomes familiar, and we expect to feel the same way every day.

It may seem impossible, but through support in music therapy, you can practice feeling joyful and grateful – the way you want to feel. The more you practice, the more open you are to allowing those feelings to appear throughout your day.

We will work together with open minds and hearts to find what practices work best for you.

Caregivers can find themselves in a space to be purely creative.

We use what works for you to practice focusing on the feelings that you want to feel. In the therapeutic space, we can explore what comes up more thoroughly, which allows for a deeper understanding of oneself. We can do this through, but not limited to, therapeutic music lessons, meditations, and verbal processing.

Therapeutic music lessons offer the opportunity to learn an instrument so you can play your favorite songs or write songs waiting for release from your inner depths.

By exploring different mindfulness practices, we work together to create personalized meditations based on your strengths and preferences.

Through verbal processing in tandem with these options, or just by itself, we can process what’s happening for you and develop understanding, self-compassion, and self-care resources for your present moment and future healing.

Working with an aging loved one is challenging.

Knowing how to interact with a loved one suffering from an age-related illness is challenging.

Through my years of experience working with seniors, I have learned techniques that help foster meaningful moments of connection between family members. It often comes back to leaving expectations behind, being open to what the present moment offers, and responding with love.

In our work together, you’ll find support in practicing these techniques and building meaning in the moments you share with your loved one.

Loss impacts the caregiver.

Whether you are experiencing anticipatory loss or if you have lost a loved one, the process of healing is complicated.

Therapy offers support in processing the emotions related to losing a loved one and developing adaptive practices to maintain a healthy relationship with the departed.

Peace is possible through music.

Being a caregiver is demanding, especially when it involves someone you love.

Maintaining a positive and supportive relationship with the person in your care requires finding ways to connect that help strengthen the relationship. Loss of that person doesn’t make it easier.

Your strength impacts the strength of others. Maintaining your stability is where music therapy can help.
