We love connecting with our alumni! Grace is doing great things out there.

Hello and welcome to my page! I'm so excited to be here. I started my business Spring of last year, with a desire to build confidence, bring compassion, and to provide a safe place within mental, emotional and physical disability.

I serve all populations and all ages across the Fort Worth area. My specialties center around working with teens in the mental health field and working in hospice with grief and bereavement, but I also have experience with a diverse range of disabilities and ages.

I invite you to follow along on my journey and to spread the word to anyone who can benefit from my services. Music has made such a huge difference in my life and I see the significant impact it makes on my clients daily. Here on my page, I will be sharing tips and tricks of the trade and educational content about the benefit of music therapy.

I welcome questions and conversation about what I do. I look forward to hearing from you as you explore my page!

Announcing: New Music Therapy Tenure Track Faculty, Fall 2026: Gabby Banzon, MA, LPMT, MT-BC

Dear Music Therapy Community,

We are so excited to announce that Gabby Banzon, MA, LPMT, MT-BC, will be joining our faculty in the music therapy program this fall, 2026!

Gabrielle Banzon (she, her), MA, LPMT, MT-BC is a Filipino-American music therapist working from Atlanta, GA, facilitating virtual groups with Charlie Health and community workshops with the Otis Redding Center for the Arts. She is also a PhD Candidate at Indiana University-Indianapolis, exploring the intersection of music therapy, technology, and public health. She received her Bachelors in Music Therapy with a minor in Music Technology from Georgia College & State University and her Masters of Arts in Music Therapy from Texas Woman's University. Her clinical interests include songwriting, music technology, community approaches, and cultural sensitivity.

Outside of music therapy, she enjoys music (duh), coffee, swimming, and is obsessed with Stranger Things. She still performs occasionally and is about to release an EP. Her favorite coffeeshop in Denton was Jupiter House, but we'll see if it still lives up to her memories. She's excited to return to the TWU music therapy program and is looking forward to getting to know everyone!

I spy some alumni in SWAMTA's upcoming poster session...👀

The SWAMTA 2026 lineup is diverse, relevant, and packed with value. Big thanks to the Selection Committee, co‑chairs, and board members for bringing together an incredible group of presenters for both the sessions and the research poster session! Don’t forget to register, link is in bio and get your hotel early!
