Music Therapy and Guided Imagery & Music in Charlotte, NC

Sound Space Collective

Sound Space Collective is led by Dean Quick, MT-BC, FAMI, a board-certified music therapist and Fellow of the Association for Music & Imagery. Dean offers music therapy, The Bonny Method of Guided Imagery & Music, and music-centered psychotherapy for adults in Charlotte, Lake Norman, Davidson, Huntersville, Mooresville, and across North Carolina.

His clinical background includes oncology, medical music therapy, mental health, integrative care, clinical supervision, and advanced training in music, imagery, and non-ordinary states of consciousness.

Music therapy is a good fit if you want to:

  • Feel more regulated and grounded

  • Work through grief and trauma

  • Process big change without staying stuck in your head

  • Use music and creativity intentionally as part of therapy

Guided Imagery & Music can naturally provide clarity by working with images, emotions, and body sensations. This method is a different experience compared to traditional talk therapy.

The Bonny Method of Guided Imagery & Music

The Bonny Method of Guided Imagery and Music (GIM) is a music-centered, depth-oriented approach that uses carefully selected music as the structure for inner exploration. In a session, you listen to a curated program of classical or instrumental music while a trained facilitator offers gentle, non-directive guidance. The focus is on what naturally emerges through imagery, emotion, body awareness, and meaning-making, then integrating those insights in a grounded way.

GIM can be offered as individual therapy, group experiences, immersive retreats, and as a training framework with supervision for clinicians. Across formats, the method is defined by intentional music selection, a clinically held container, and a process that supports both exploration and integration.
