Kamilla worked with Heartland Hospice, Grand Rapids, MI, for seven years with patients diagnosed with a wide range of neurologic and chronic conditions including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, cancer, COPD, CHF, TBI. In December 2018, she obtained NMT certification by taking Neurologic Music Therapy training to expand her knowledge and diversify patient population. This prompted Kamilla to develop a new Music Therapy Program at Lake Michigan Academy, Grand Rapids, MI, where she worked with students of different neurological and learning disabilities. Kamilla was contracted by numerous memory care facilities throughout West Michigan where she provided music therapy services to individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.
