Support for licensure
 

As a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist, I fully support licensure for Music Therapy in Virginia. Music Therapy is a vital treatment to many with physical, cognitive, intellectual, and emotional disabilities. Providing licensure for Music Therapy will help protect those that they treat to ensure patients and clients are getting adequate and professional care.
