I’m Meredith Whitlow, MMT, MT-BC, founder and owner of Rejoice Music Therapy, LLC based in Mooresville, NC. I began Rejoice because I believe whole-heartedly in the powerful impact and clinical efficacy of music and recognized the need for music therapy in my home community. I am a lifelong musician with a background in all things musical from church music to opera, instrumentalist to vocalist, and performer to director.  I am a classically trained singer (UNC- Greensboro) and a Master's level board-certified Music Therapist (Queens University of Charlotte, Colorado State University).  My 1,040-hour clinical internship was completed at Queens University Music Therapy Clinic and Atrium Health Mercy-Charlotte (formerly Mercy Hospital) in medical intensive care and post and pre-operative care.  I credit classical training, opera work, church musician roles, and even my marching band days with preparing me well to deliver my best every day as a clinician, a business owner, and an employer.    

​

My professional music therapy background includes work across ages and diagnoses (although primarily adult medical and aging populations including end of life);  public speaking, presenting, and guest lecturing on music therapy; internship supervision; and local state advocacy and legislation efforts.  Additionally, I have authored two music therapy resources and am working on a third. 

Initially a solo endeavor, Rejoice Music Therapy, LLC began with faith and determination, reaching a small number of clients in the Mooresville, NC area.  I am thankful to say that at the time of this writing Rejoice employs a team of board-certified music therapists in order to serve hundreds of clients across the state of North Carolina!  Stay tuned to see where we grow next!
