The music therapist in me could talk all day long about the mental health benefits of music. I could make a list that includes mood enhancement, stress reduction, emotional expression, memory & identity, coping, and cognitive function.
I could even go so far as to say that making and listening to music is one of the most accessible ways to connect to ourselves and others on a profound level.
But I’ll keep it simple and tell you that one of the best parts of my work is witnessing first-hand the powerful impact of the right song at the right time.
Have you experienced this for yourself? And what are those songs for you?

Rachel’s Story
Welcome! My name is Rachel Rambach. Here are a few words and phrases I might use to describe myself: mom, music therapist, author, business owner, singer, songwriter, and educator.
Growing up, my goal in life was to become a professional singer. I spent my formative years performing on stage at school, community theater, and church. I wanted to pursue honing my craft as a singer, so after high school I enrolled at Rollins College as a vocal performance major.
But I quickly realized that although I enjoyed performing immensely, it just wasn’t enough. I wanted a career that would allow me to help others while still making use of my musical talents; so when I discovered music therapy while researching for a paper, I was captivated. I did more research and shadowed a music therapist so I could get a better idea of what it was all about.
Fast forward one year, when I graduated three semesters early so that I could begin my masters degree in music therapy at Illinois State University. Although I originally intended to work with older adults, my professors were convinced that working with children was my calling. After several practicum experiences, I started to agree with them. I finished my coursework and began an internship with a private practice in St. Louis.
