Hello! My name is Rebecca Smith, and I am one of the new interns at Therabeat, Inc.! I’m originally from Woodstock, Ga, and am working towards a music therapy equivalency certification and masters degree from the University of Georgia. I received a bachelors degree in music from Kennesaw State University, where my primary instrument was voice. I have always loved music, but was unsure how to turn my passion into something more. When I discovered music therapy I instantly knew I wanted to learn everything I could about music therapy.
My first week of internship has flown by and has been better than I could have imagined. I have loved getting to observe so many new therapists and meet so many many new people in such a short amount of time. I have especially loved having the opportunity to observe other therapy disciplines such as physical, speech, and occupational therapy. Seeing how everyone supports each other at In Harmony Pediatric Therapy has been a highlight.
I’m so excited to be apart of team Therabeat, Inc. for the duration of my music therapy internship. I can not wait to see how I grow as I begin to take the next steps in becoming a music therapist.
