Viking Connections: Victoria Kleeman
Victoria Kleeman is a music therapist working through Midwest Music Therapy Services in St. Louis. She provides music therapy at school and in homes for children and adolescents on the autism spectrum. She also provides music therapy services to children in the foster care system through Music That Reclaims.
"As a music therapist, I have had to be a mentor/supervisor to students going through practicum, and I love seeing them blossom through just one semester. I absolutely loved my time at Augustana, but freshman year was definitely difficult and it would have been so incredible to be able to reach out to someone who had already been through what I was going through! I was also a first-generation college (and graduate) student-- being able to discuss the process with someone who had done it not that long before me and was not or had not pursued a doctorate would have been a great help, as the process was very different for me. In short, I love helping people, especially the younger generation, and I wish that I would have had someone to help me."
