Larissa and Lauren are excited to share their live podcast from the recent IDIC Podcast Festival (presented by Women at Warp)! They are joined by board-certified music therapist and Trekkie Amanda Maestro-Scherer to talk about instances in the franchise in which characters have therapeutic relationships or experiences with music. The trio discuss possibilities for the future of expressive therapies, the role that science fiction could play in pushing forward a more holistic approach to care, and how the EMH is the perfect candidate to be a space music therapist.
