Teresa plays LTM on a replica of an 18th Century Baroque flute. During her MHTP internship in 2013, she developed a love for comforting ICU and Neonatal ICU patients. Before the COVID restrictions, she provided LTM to babies in the Neonatal ICU at Gwinnett Medical Center in Lawrenceville at Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville, GA.
Teresa watches the babies' monitors as she plays comforting tones from the soft dove-like voice of her instrument. “Even if the patients cannot talk to us or tell us what they need, their vital signs speak for them.”
