Music Therapy with Families: Meeting online in 2026

CONNECTING & REFLECTING

These gatherings are intended as open and welcoming spaces where colleagues from different backgrounds and contexts can come together — to listen, to share, and to engage in meaningful dialogue around music therapy with families.
We are planning to rotate these sessions across different countries and time zones, so that participation can become more accessible and inclusive for our international community.

We warmly invite you to join the first Connecting & Reflecting session, exploring work with couples in music therapy with families. This online session brings together colleagues interested in sharing clinical experiences, research perspectives, and reflections on working with couples.

  • Kristi Stedje (NOR): Couplehood in music – clinical practice and research perspectives on music therapy and couples living with dementia
  • Sanne Storm (DK): Music therapeutic birth preparation for couples

Chairs: Laura Blauth (DE) & Kirsi Tuomi (FIN)

Each presentation will be followed by time for questions and shared discussion. Depending on the number of participants, there will also be opportunities for smaller breakout conversations.
The session will last approximately two hours and will be hosted by the chairs.

This is a free online event, aiming to create space for dialogue, reflection, and international connection among colleagues.
