Connection and comfort are fundamental human needs. We can experience them through our favorite song, a deep diaphragmatic breath, and the soothing voice of someone we trust.

Music therapy is an individualized experience clinically proven to offer social, physical, cognitive, and emotional health benefits. It helps individuals achieve non-music-related goals through the use of music.

I offer personalized one-on-one sessions, ranging from 30 to 60 minutes, tailored to your individual needs. While my practice is primarily virtual, in-person sessions may be available depending on your location.
Kind Words
“In the first minutes of our 5-year-old nonverbal daughter's first session with Nikki, her eyes lit up and she kicked her feet with joy and belly-laughed, as it dawned on her that here, finally, was a woman who gets it. Our daughter already loved music the way most people love oxygen, and she's now found someone who knows how to use improvisational music to reach into her world and communicate with her. Nikki is our music therapist for life!
-Proud parents of a fantastic 5 year old :)
“Nikki is one of a kind, and every interaction is filled with her trademark kindness, acceptance, and grace. And she plays a helluva guitar with a voice as beautiful as her personality. We highly recommend Nikki, and more importantly, our daughter highly recommends Nikki and will sing it to anyone who’d like to hear it!”
-Awesome parents of a 14-year-old rockstar :)
"Attending Nikki's music class has profoundly enhanced my quality of life. The vocal exercises have strengthened my voice and enriched my ability to sing and participate. Her sessions are the highlight of my week, and their impact on my well-being lasts long after. "
