Mack Bailey

Music Therapy Retreats

Origins

Founded in 2018 by the former touring musician and board-certified music therapist, Mack Bailey, Music Therapy Retreats emerged as a viable option for those grappling with the aftermath of trauma. Bailey’s personal story of depression, his passion for music and his unwavering commitment to making a difference led to the creation of an organization that would forever alter the lives of veterans and other at-risk populations suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Our unique approach is grounded in neuroscience. We have financed brain image studies and plan on doing more extensive research. Our philosophy is that the brain is the hardware, and the mind and thoughts are the software. If the hardware is not working at its best potential, the software will not be either.

Helping Veterans and At Risk Population

“You aren’t trying to make us better veterans or fix us because we are broken. You treat us like humans. You have created something really special here.”

"He is doing something special with that program and I hope it just keeps growing. I have been to a lot of retreats but none have impacted me the way that one has. They have done more for me in that one especially in such a short amount of time.”
