She is a licensed and registered Occupational Therapist and a board certified Music Therapist. Anna completed her bachelor’s of science in music therapy at The University of Alabama and worked for several years in the greater Chicagoland area.

She received her master’s degree and her post-professional clinical doctorate in occupational therapy (OTD) at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC).

This dissertation evaluated self-efficacy of each participant pre-, post-, and one-month after the implementation of this course.
