Abstract

“I love music therapy more today than I ever have,” says Jim Borling, who has been a music therapist for over 30 years and teaching music therapy for 28 years at Radford University.  How has he kept his passion for music therapy for so long?  I’ve never had the chance to ask him that question – until now.
