    "Care Chronicles x AVP" with Tricia Caiati

    In our first ever crossover episode, we speak with friend of the show Tricia Caiati, a board certified music therapist (MT-BC) who is also the Care Chronicles podcast host. Tricia gets into how she transitioned from a full time traveling music therapist into a new hybrid role. We also speak about burnout and the way transitions in your practice can foster a more aligned and values-driven work-life. Visit the Care Chronicles podcast for the second part of our conversation.

Olivia-Renee ,

A fantastic resource for our music therapy community!

I cannot say enough positive things about The Able Voice Podcast. This podcast provides great insight into the multifaceted world of music therapy. The conversations inspire reflections on what it really means to be a music therapist, prompting contemplations about our role and potential as healthcare clinicians. Hosts Hayley & Kim are redefining possibilities, sparking visions about the limitless potential for music therapy, as well as engaging in real conversations that need to be had within the field. The warm and authentic interview style makes it a go-to resource for those seeking a sense of connection within the music therapy community. For music therapists, the podcast serves as a source of inspiration, education, validation, and hope for the growth and future of the profession. I cannot recommend it enough!

Incredible Hosts

Such a wealth of interesting topics and speakers. Thank you for this amazing contribution to the field of music therapy and beyond.

Trina Chakrabarti ,

Fun, Informative, and Impactful

This is my favourite music therapy podcast, and so it was an absolute honour to join Mary as guests from Wellington Music Therapy Services. Hayley and Kim explore a variety of topics, going above and beyond what we know, and into how we can grow and diversify the field. Highly reccomened for music therapists and those interested in the field, as well as people who want to learn more about mental health topics, and social justice advocacy. Each season just gets better and better!
