Ellen Abood, MT-BC
Staff Music Therapist

About

Ellen is a Northern Virginia native and grew up right here in Fairfax County. In 2018, Ellen received her Bachelor of Music in Musical Theatre from The Catholic University of America in Washington DC. Before going back to school to receive her Music Therapy Certification, Ellen spent a year working with children at an early childhood development startup in Arlington as well as teaching dance at a local studio.

In 2019 she began her journey to becoming a Music Therapist through Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College’s online certification program. While in school, Ellen continued to grow her passion for music and helping others by leading dance classes at underprivileged schools in DC and continuing her work at the early childhood startup. 

Ellen completed her internship at Beyond Words in Northeast Ohio working with children and adolescents with a range of intellectual and developmental disabilities. Here she solidified the idea that practicing music therapy in a private practice was the perfect fit for her passions and skills.

Ellen is thrilled to be a part of the NeuroSound Music Therapy team and is proud to continue serving the Northern Virginia community!
