Shanay Johnson, LCAT

Psychotherapist
NY
Shanay (Shay) Johnson received her music therapy master's degree from NYU and completed her clinical training at The Louis Armstrong Center for Music & Medicine. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Music from Westminster Choir College where she studied voice, and she also completed coursework at Trinity Lutheran Seminary where she pursued theological studies and church music. During her studies she came to discover that music and the arts were giving her and those around her something more than just enjoyable experiences. She noticed that the creative arts enabled people to feel deeply, to find greater connection to one another, and even be inspired to come to new conclusions about themselves, others, and the world around them. As a result, this unique yet universally experienced medium became the foundation of her practice.
