S 2 Ep 7 - Surviving as a New Professional with Kim Best

Dannielle is thrilled to speak with Kim Best, MT-BC about surviving as a new music therapy professional as they gear up for Music Therapy Now's New Professional Retreat on Saturday, September 28th! Kim, the keynote speaker, is a music therapist in Rochester, NY working in private practice with hospice care, eldercare and memory care, people with mental health challenges, and caregivers. Kim is passionate about lifting up music therapists and providing coaching and supervision to support a more sustainable profession. Kim is known for her authenticity which is the foundation of her connections with others. She loves having honest conversations, and Not Your Average Music Therapist, a podcast with a fallen-over guitar logo, is just for that! On any given day, you may find Kim trying to garden, posting the most random thoughts on Instagram, waiting for a cup of tea to cool down just enough so that it’s still hot but not burn-your-tongue hot, finding new trails to walk with her husband, snuggling her stuffed-animal-come-to-life kitten, and sending handmade cards in the mail. Find resources, “music can help” tees, and more: kimbest.com
