My name is Dustin Politte. I'm a Music Therapist at St. Louis Psychiatric Rehabilitation Center. I graduated from Maryville University in 2019 and began working at SLPRC later that year. I'm interested in networking and finding more opportunities to gain experience and knowledge to better serve multiple populations. I'm originally a percussionist and love finding new ways to engage clients with accessible instruments that entertain as well as meet therapeutic goals.
