In this episode, we welcome Robyn Peters, the President of the Music Therapy Association of Manitoba. Robyn who speaks about her journey from completing her degree in music therapy to quickly moving into the role of MTAM board president. Robyn also shares more about the projects that MTAM is involved with along with the FACT-MB certification process.
Robyn began pursuing her music therapy degree at the Canadian Mennonite University in Winnipeg and then completed her degree in 2018 through the online program at Saint Mary of the Woods College in Terre Haute, Indiana. Shortly after becoming a certified music therapist Robyn joined the MTAM board to connect with other music therapists and then in 2019 she became the board president. Over the past 4 years Robyn has been working with a number of different clients. This has included working at care homes, children with autism, adults with intellectual and physical disabilities, children in foster care, and working with those dealing with grief and loss. When she is not busy juggling her schedule between in person and online sessions Robyn enjoys spending time with her family. Robyn and her husband Garry have been married for 36years, have 4 grown children, and one grandson (and a golden retriever named Jack). One of their favourite things to do together is head out in their camper (aka The Tiny House) and enjoy some relaxing time at one of the many campsites in Manitoba. Robyn has also discovered that she enjoys painting and drawing and has found this to be a great outlet for self-care.
