Our Mission
GGMT is a small, value-centered practice offering wholesome and personalized music therapy. We keep our caseload intentionally small so each client receives the time, care, and attention they need to feel truly heard and supported. Our goal is to create meaningful, individualized experiences that empower clients to live fulfilling and connected lives.
In addition to music therapy, GGMT incorporates principles of agroforestry - an ecological approach to food production that emphasizes sustainability and stewardship. By weaving together music and land-based practices, we offer a holistic model of care that nurtures both personal well-being and community resilience.
We believe healing and growth happen in harmony - with self, family, community, and the land.
