Music as therapy – A book with soul
Using his music as therapy was a way for musician, psychologist, and now author Larry Suess to unite both of his passions. In his book, Still A Minstrel, Suess invites readers to share in his unique life journey.
Compellingly honest, entertaining and inspiring, Still A Minstrel is Suess’ account of key events that led him to become a psychologist and music therapist, as well as a musician and songwriter. Suess explores the power of music to forge connections by reminiscing about the escapades of his traveling rock band, his years as a jazz pianist presiding over a lively piano bar, and using music as therapy as a psychologist to connect with a variety of hard-to-reach clients. He insightfully illustrates how science, culture, technology, and religion affect our response to music.
Equally appealing to music fans, musicians, and mental health professionals, Still A Minstrel is the joyous story of a musician and healer using his own gifts to help others find their paths in an often confusing world.
