Here's my #amta21 opening session thread. Join me.
Before you ask: as far as I know, Renee and I are not related. #amta21 #OpeningSession
I really enjoy watching clinical tape of other music therapists. It sometimes feels like we all practice in a vacuum, so seeing folks do the work is a nice treat. #amta21 #OpeningSession

"Suffers from Tourette's syndrome" doesn't seem like the phrase we should be using. #amta21 #OpeningSession
A heartbreaking story from Nick van Bloss, a pianist with Tourette's syndrome who was mercilessly bullied by kids and teachers at his school and found peace and purpose in the piano. #amta21 #OpeningSession

Attending @BreaMurakami's presentation: "Ethical Considerations for Leadership in Music Therapy." I deeply admire Brea's scholarship and am excited to see what she has to offer on this topic. Screen shot of a virtual conference presentation. Brea's pic
@BreaMurakami I really appreciate @BreaMurakami's openness in discussing her experiences of harm and unethical situations, including her own mistakes. More people should be open about this sort of thing in this way: admitting wrongdoing and taking actions to do better.
How do we do better moving forward?
