Praise for Grace + Space:
“Sandy has an uncanny ability to take a simple concept like be present at the bedside, peel away delicate layers, and see an intricate lattice of cause-and-effect, explaining connections between science and art.”

Praise for Healing Harmony:
“Sandy has created an absolute must-have, 24-page illustrated storybook about the experiences of Dory, a Certified Therapeutic Musician (CTM), and her companion, Mulligan, a service dog who accompanies her at the bedside. This book truly offers the CTM an abundance of tenets, compassionately and knowledgeably worded, to inspire personal growth and to serve as a resource for educating others about the scope of therapeutic music practice. Sandy’s graceful watercolor images highlight how tailoring music can benefit residents, clients, and patients, as well as support both the Therapeutic Musician and the facilities they serve. Her words say it all—all that we have studied, researched, and followed, in the footsteps of the many who knew the power and positive results of music throughout the ages. Indeed, this book will guide you on your journey.”
