This webinar features two experts in music-based research: Dr. Jacek Kolacz, Research Assistant Professor, Ph.D., and Rebecca Knowles, OTD, OTR/L, RYT. Advancements in Music-Based Interventions: Evidence and Applications will dive into the latest research on PTSD, anxiety, depression, trauma and psychosocial challenges, with a focus on expanding your trauma-informed practice toolkit with interventions such as the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP).
Dr. Jacek Kolacz is the Principal Investigator in the groundbreaking study at The Ohio State University on SSP in PTSD treatment, which recently received $3.8 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Defense. He will share study results, ongoing trials and next steps, exploring the dynamic relationship between clinical practice and research.
Rebecca Knowles will discuss new updates on the real-world effectiveness of SSP in treating anxiety, depression, trauma and beyond.
