https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWdweU03Yn4

In this episode of Magic Wand Moments, Lindsey Wahlstrom sits down with Laurie Park, Board Certified Music Therapist and Licensed Creative Arts Therapist — and Rona’s music therapist.

This conversation is deeply personal.

Laurie was part of Rona’s care team, but more than that, she was part of how Rona — and her family — experienced that care. Through music therapy, she helped create moments of connection, calm, and even joy in the middle of something incredibly difficult.

In this conversation, Lindsey and Laurie discuss:

• Why music matters in pediatric care

• How music therapy supports both children and families

• The role of connection and emotional expression in medical settings

This episode also includes a special moment of Laurie and Rona singing together — a small glimpse into what music therapy made possible.
