Therapeutic Sound
Wellness experiences through sound, rest, presence, and connection.
Slow down through sound.
An intentional practice using sound to support wellbeing. Through sound baths and other experiences, we create space for presence, restoration, and connection.
Therapeutic sound is a wellness service. It is not mental health counseling or music therapy.
Why sound?
I first began exploring therapeutic sound during a season when I was trying to learn how to meditate and kept wondering whether I was doing it right.
Sound offered me space to explore stillness and presence. It didn't ask me to quiet my mind or perform mindfulness perfectly. It gave me something to be present with, and to receive. A loving, nonjudgmental container for simply being where I was.
This relationship continues to shape the way I offer sound baths.
For me, sound is an invitation. It is an offering of space. You are welcome to come exactly as you are.
What to Expect-
When you arrive, you'll have time to settle into the space and get comfortable. I'll offer a brief introduction to the experience and invite you to explore what it means to be present and still.

Using singing bowls, chimes, tongue drums, and other instruments, I create a listening journey that typically lasts about an hour. Most of the experience is simply listening and receiving.
Many people choose to lie down, but you are also welcome to sit, move, adjust or change positions whenever you need to. Your body gets to guide your experience.
You may notice your thoughts. You may feel relaxed. You may feel restless. You may drift somewhere between wakefulness and sleep. You may notice very little at all.

By simply being here, you've already offered yourself a meaningful gift. You don't have to accomplish anything else. You can let yourself settle, soften, listen, and receive.
At the end, we allow a little space for silence before returning to the room. Depending on the setting, there may also be an opportunity for quiet reflection or sharing.
Community Sound Baths
Caring for ourselves, together.
There is something meaningful about choosing to care for yourself alongside other people who are doing the same.
My community sound baths are an invitation to pause, rest, listen, and receive, but they are also an invitation to gather. We come together in shared spaces, each bringing our own experience, and spend time intentionally caring for ourselves in community. I believe that kind of care creates a ripple.
When we give ourselves permission to slow down, we may leave with a little more space for ourselves, and a little more capacity to show up for the people and communities around us.
This is part of why I love offering sound baths in Atlanta. Every person who chooses to spend an hour caring for themselves is contributing to something larger: a community of people making space for rest, presence, connection, and wellbeing. Thank you for being part of that ripple.
A Different Kind of Space
Therapeutic sound is a wellness service focused on rest, presence, connection, and wellbeing. While a sound bath may feel supportive or restorative, it is not mental health counseling or music therapy.
Attending a community or private sound bath does not make you a counseling client of The Listening Collective, and participation in a sound bath does not establish a therapist-client relationship.
If you are an existing counseling client of The Listening Collective and choose to attend a sound bath, the sound bath remains a separate wellness experience. It is not a counseling session, and your participation does not change the nature of your counseling relationship or replace your ongoing clinical care.
Sound baths are offered as opportunities to pause, listen, rest, and connect, not as individualized mental health treatment. If you are unsure which service is right for you, you're always welcome to reach out and ask.
