I have always been fascinated with
helping others. For years, I considered becoming a license counselor so that I
could help others talk through their problems. The more I thought about my
ability to sit quietly, ask questions, and just listen, the more I questioned
if I could actually be a therapist. I mean me quiet, yeah that is not
realistic.
I have been singing for years and
music has always been my biggest therapy. How could I merge the two? How could
I actually help people with my music? I have decided that entertainment therapy
will be my outlet. You may think, I have heard of music therapy but just what
is entertainment therapy? This question is exactly what I intend to figure out.
I have never heard of anyone doing entertainment therapy. This is a field where
I want to be trailblazer. I want to offer therapy through all types of
entertainment. Sounds easy, right? I hope so!
Of course, I intend to write songs
and manuals that will service other therapist and clients. I do not intend to
publish these products in the local stores and selling them out of my office
will only affect the community. This becomes
a problem in distribution, so the best solution I have found, as of today,
would be The Orchard. I choose The Orchard because I can distribute music and
create films. The problem is finding a POD (print-on-demand) site that will
allow me to create music, film and literature. So maybe that will be the first
order of business, creating a POD that does just that.
This will be an adventurous journey
that will take a lot of research and patience. Continue to follow me on this
blog as we journey together through the making of an entertainment therapist.
