TESTIMONIALS

​"I want to mention something. Initially, I thought, “Why do music therapists get asked to volunteer their talents?” I considered not doing this retreat because of this until I learned that EVERY volunteer is a highly trained individual in their discipline (Reiki, yoga, massage, counselor, etc.).  Melissa and her family, team and friends have created a mission to provide a FREE, (yes, you-read-that-right,) FREE day of giving back to the caregivers of people with dementia and Alzheimers. It is a full day with a variety of sessions to choose from plus 1:1 services if people choose to have individual time with the volunteers.  As a volunteer, I was amazed and humbled at the amount of generosity that was present. Caregivers need to connect with other caregivers. They need to pamper themselves. They often neglect themselves for the sake of their patients or their loved ones.  My experience there was truly amazing and I will not hesitate to volunteer again for this retreat or anything like it.  It also allowed me to network with other volunteers and caregivers. It is a total win-win."
