Music Therapy Source was started in 2009 with a simple goal: to help people find their way into the field of music therapy without the confusion.
Becoming a music therapist is a unique, life-changing journey, but the path through school and certification can feel overwhelming. I created this site to be a reliable place where prospective students and career-changers can find clear, honest, and professional guidance.
My name is Matt Logan, and I’ve been a Board Certified Music Therapist (MT-BC) since 2010. For the past several years, I’ve been based in San Francisco, where I practice at a local pediatric hospital.
I know firsthand the challenges of balancing musicality with clinical goals, and I understand how important it is to choose the right training program. I started Music Therapy Source because I wanted to provide the kind of resource I wish I’d had when I was first starting out—something that cuts through the noise and gets straight to the heart of what you need to know.
Our primary resource is the annual Music Therapy Source School Guide. Updated every year, this guide is designed to help you compare programs side-by-side so you can make an informed choice about your education and your future career.
Whether you’re just starting to look at colleges or you’re ready to take the leap into a new profession, I’m glad you’re here. My hope is that these resources help you move forward with confidence.
