Four Weeks of Virtual Job Coaching: A Path to Your Therapeutic Music Career


REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED FOR THIS WEBINAR.

Four Saturdays: February 27, March 6, 13, and 20; 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm, EST

This webinar is comprised of four, three-hour, weekly workshops and assignments of two-hours of homework each week, designed for CMPs and MHTP students to explore opportunities for employment as a therapeutic musician. Through each three-hour interactive workshop, assignments, and individualized feedback, participants will develop a detailed vision of their ideal job and a path to bring it to life.  Participants will employ the essential elements of a therapeutic musician into these sessions, allowing for deep listening, open-hearted discussion, and belief that we each are on a healing journey to wholeness. 

"Thank you for providing me with not only the confidence, but also the marketing tools – brochure, cover letter, and listing contacts.  All of those tools worked.  The woman who was my initial contact gave my name to two other people at the hospital, and one of those gave my name to the person who called me."

CMPs earn 20 CEUs. Participants must complete all aspects of the course to earn the 20 hours, including full attendance, and satisfactory completion of all assignments and individual discussions as determined by the instructor. 

Cost is $210.00. Class size is limited.

Each week’s workshop will: 

  • begin and end with live music and centering exercises

  • include full group-discussion 

  • involve break-out groups

  • provide individualized guidance on the topic of the week

  • Workshop 1: Envisioning Your Ideal Job

  • Workshop 2: Facing Your Obstacles and Fears 

  • Workshop 3: Discovering the Authentic You 

  • Workshop 4: Reaching Out

NOT́E: Workshops are not offered separately, rather this is an integrated experience, with each week’s session building on those that came before. 

"Her positivity is infectious! I highly recommend her workshops to anyone who is wanting to get help finding work as a CMP. It is excellent and fun, a great place to meet other like-minded music healers and share the journey to a more fulfilling role in healthcare."

Your instructor is Rebecca Strauss, CMP, Violist. Through many years as a freelance musician, director of Riverview Chamber Players, and creator of programs for healing, Rebecca has learned key elements in cultivating collaborators, creating opportunities, and getting paid work in her field.

As a teacher, Rebecca is compassionate and kind, allowing students time to embrace and embody the subject and skills being taught. She is on the faculty of Longy School of Music of Bard College where she teaches the Music as a Healing Art course.

She honed her life coaching skills with Tara Baldwin of Believe Life Coaching, a Tony Robbins trained coach, and readily incorporates life coaching elements into her teaching.

Cancellation: If MHTP cancels this webinar because of too few participants or any other reason, all participants will be notified via email and will receive a full refund ($210). If a participant must cancel, that participant should immediately notify MHTP. If a participant cancels more than one week in advance of the first workshop, a full refund will be given. If a participant cancels less than one week in advance (after 3:00pm EDT Feb 20), no refund will be given, because last-minute cancellations could make the number of participants too small for a webinar to be viable.
