“When we do not have words to convey our sensations, feelings, or thoughts, we cannot simply 'name it to tame it'. But we can use implicit communication -- movement, rhythm, sound, image, enactment, and play -- to 'express it to address it'.
This is the transformative and restorative role of expressive arts, to provide a voice when language is unavailable or impossible.”
​
- Dr. Cathy Malchiodi, trauma-informed expressive arts therapist and researcher

Bio
Myah is originally from Alaska where she discovered Music Therapy and started her journey with music. She moved to Fort Collins, Colorado, to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Music Therapy at Colorado State University in 2018. Myah completed her coursework in 2022 and graduated in 2023 following her internship with Elevate Music Therapy.
In her internship, Myah worked at a private practice serving a primary population of pediatrics with intellectual, developmental and physical disabilities with opportunities for co-treatment with client's interdisciplinary team members, including occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech therapy and equine therapy.
In her sessions, Myah creates a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and identities through music. Drawing from a variety of evidence-based techniques and interventions, she tailors her approach to meet the specific needs and goals of each client. Whether through songwriting, improvisation, lyric analysis, or music listening, Myah empowers clients to find their voice and express themselves authentically.
With a deep commitment to ongoing learning and growth, Myah frequently integrates and engages with research findings in her practice. She is dedicated to advocating for the rights and inclusion of individuals with disabilities, amplifying their voices and promoting social change.
Myah is excited to continue her work in music therapy and gain even more experience with patients who have experienced or are experiencing trauma through her client centered treatment. Myah is passionate about community outreach and education through music groups and volunteer opportunities. Committed to fostering a more inclusive environment, she strives to create spaces where all individuals can thrive and find belonging. When she’s not making music, Myah enjoys climbing, reading, art and being outside.
