Facility

PMT was founded in 2013 to serve clients, students and programs in York and Mecklenburg Counties of the Carolinas. 

The mission of PMT is to engage, empower and accompany individuals to reach their goals grounded in the frameworks of music therapy and social work. PMT strives to meet students and clients where they are and support them in improving their quality of life. Additionally PMT serves to promote the growth of music therapy students and board certified music therapists by offering educational opportunities plus increasing the community's awareness of the field of music therapy.

Training

Clinical experiences may include individual and group based music therapy treatment (remotely & in-person). Client age ranges from child to adult and community partnerships are listed here.  Additional learning experiences will be available through music instruction of adapted or traditional lessons on various musical instruments, co-facilitating professional development events, community based opportunities with music making and program development.

Candidates for a music therapy internship at PMT will be encouraged to connect, play and grow with the guidelines of American Music Therapy Association Professional Competencies, Certification Board for Music Therapist Certification Domains and AMTA Code of Ethics.  PMT offers a unique learning opportunity because of the team of board certified music therapists on staff. 

This is an unpaid internship. We encourage you to apply for the Southeastern Region of AMTA Internship Scholarship and the opportunity through the Music Therapy Association of South Carolina.
