.

Please join Sherrye Platt, MS, MT-BC, RVNAhealth Music Therapist, for a fun and interactive program outlining the benefits of music therapy on brain health!  At this event, you will learn how the brain responds to music stimulation; the benefits of music on the aging process; and group music-making activities.  No previous musical experience is necessary.

While an undergradutate at Montclair State University, presenter Sherrye Platt was introduced to music as an evidence-based therapeutic tool being leveraged across disciplines including mental health, military populations, trauma victims, and those afflicted with neurological conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.  Platt quickly re-focused her studies to leverage the poser of music to improve people's lives.  Platt earned her master's degree at world-renowned Berklee College of Music.

This is a hybrid event; you can choose to attend in person or on Zoom.
