Fantastic video about my wonderful @CHI_Ireland colleague @AlisonSweeneyMT and her journey to becoming senior music therapist in @TempleStreetHos Alison was the year ahead of me in UL and I'm very lucky to still work alongside such a kind, talented powerhouse of a therapist.

[University Of Limerick @UL]

At UL, Alison Sweeney found a way to marry her love of music with her fascination for human behaviour.

As Senior Music Therapist in @templestreethos, Alison helps young people navigate their hospital journey through music therapy.

It was such a privilege to have had the chance to sing with Christy Dignam. I'll never forget the goosebumps the first time hearing him sing acoustically a few feet away in rehearsal.. A beautiful voice and human. Rest in Peace 🙏🎶

Research is the backbone of any profession. It tests hypotheses, challenges pre-existing perceptions, highlights the service user’s voice & identifies and supports best practice. Celebrating 25 years of #musictherapy research in Ireland.

Great article. A desperately necessary conversation.

[Children in Hospital Ireland @childreninhosp]

Amazing to see our Annual Lecture being covered by Sheila Wayman in the @IrishTimes!

Let's continue the conversation on how we can all play a part to improve a child's experience of medical procedures.
