Pros

Love the clients, love music therapy, love the concept of this facility.

Cons

Constant manipulation, salary is not livable in Northern Virginia, being overworked and overbooked with clients, I was expected to make this place my life rather than a job and would be made to feel bad if I didn’t.

Pros

- the work with clients - the community

Cons

- Admin staff are unethical, playing out their own insecurities and traumas on clients and therapists, and appears unwilling to learn or change - Constant advocacy for yourself and your clients in the face of unethical admin decisions becomes completely exhausting, and this is held against therapists as not being a team player/being non-compliant or difficult to work with - Admin uses textbook saviorism/veiled ableism - "we do so much good though" so issues are ignored - Admin culture of control leads to high therapist turnover, taking advantage of young therapists who have no expectation for pay, boundaries, or work life balance.
