Based in Northern Kentucky, Music Matters was formed in January 2009 by Kate Legge, a Board Certified Music Therapist. Currently, the company provides services to families in-home and at community facilities (check out the "links" page for more information).

 

Kate Legge, MT-BC, Owner/ Director
Originally from the tri-state area, Kate received her degree in Music Therapy from the University of Evansville (Indiana, 2005), and completed a 9-month clinical internship with Midwest Music Therapy Services in St. Louis, Missouri. Kate began her professional career with MWMTS, with opportunities to work in-home as well as in schools. Upon returning to greater Cincinnati, Kate worked a short while before Music Matters was created.  Special areas of interest include how music therapy impacts individuals on a neurologic level, as well as the influence of music therapy on language and communication development.   Kate is a member of the American Music Therapy Association, and lives in northern Kentucky with her husband, Jeremy, and their three black Labradors.
