Two small business resources

I drive a lot. I try to write all of my progress notes between clients and sites, and to do that, I use my iPad. Just in case you out there who are in private practice and who drive do not know about Evernote, I’ll take this moment to say that it’s been really handy for me. [...]

Ah, cellos

Michael Jackson came up for me today, and it reminded me of this video. I saw it for the first time months ago, and chances are you have, too, but just in case you haven’t:

So many books and articles to read

I have always wanted to be an avid reader. I introduced An Article Monthly Project months ago, and I did find that making the time to read the articles was satisfying. But, it did not last. One good book I am reading (in pieces) is The Dynamics of Music Psychotherapy, edited by Kenneth Bruscia. I’m [...]

A song share

Yes, the musicality of this song is strange. The singer’s voice doesn’t sound like it should be singing these lyrics. But, I appreciate these lyrics as a music therapist. I was listening to The Current this morning and thought the song, or at least the lyrics, could lend themselves well to a group discussion with [...]

Happy new year! We’ve been traveling in the Midwest and in New York City over the past couple of weeks. This is our first full week back at work. There really is comfort in routine. I am taking this opportunity to guide you to a new website to which I am a contributing blogger. The [...]

Motivation

Working in private practice offers its set of challenges. One such challenge, for me, is finding consistent motivation to KEEP UP ON MY PAPERWORK. I’m actually pretty scheduled and somewhat determined, and definitely goal-oriented. But, my lists and post-its and planners and web-based calendars amass entries much faster than I can strike them (or recycle [...]

Books in abundance

I was listening to Janice Lindstrom’s latest episode of The Music Therapy Show today, in which she interviewed Barbara Wheeler, PhD, MT-BC, and decided two things: Maybe I’d read more music therapy research and texts if they were available on an e-reader (and oh hey, at Barcelona Publishers, texts are available in abundance in that format). Maybe I [...]

Two small business blogs

Because I’ve had such a terrifically long day, I’m going to keep this short and leave you with two blogs that I find helpful in small business development and growth. They are Private Practice from the Inside Out and Small Biz Lady. Have a good Thursday.
