CUSTOMIZED MUSIC THERAPY

Our individual music therapy sessions are tailored to the needs of our patients, and we partner with our clients, their families and care teams to create innovative solutions. Sessions are designed to meet the unique needs of individuals of all ages based on goal areas including:

• Developmental growth

• Emotional needs

• Social/ behavioral needs

• Sensory needs

• Cognitive skills

• Mental health

• Communication skills (verbal or non-verbal)

LIFE CHANGING GROWTH

Music therapy sessions are led by board-certified music therapists who work with clients to discover powerful ways in which music can be utilized to facilitate change and growth. Musical experiences are success-oriented and tend to be hands-on. Clients are encouraged to actively participate in sessions through playing, creating, analyzing, and moving to music.

BOARD-CERTIFIED MUSIC THERAPISTS

Our music therapists receive specialized training in music and its application in clinical settings from an accredited university. The curriculum provided in these programs address musical skills, clinical knowledge including development, and application of music therapy. Music therapists are required to receive 1200 hours of supervised clinical training before becoming a board-certified music therapist (MT-BC).

ADAPTIVE MUSIC LESSONS

Many of our clients want to learn to play the piano or other instruments, but before meeting our team they struggle to find instructors who understand how to teach people who may need an adjusted approach. Adaptive music lessons are a positive solution to their needs! 

By blending what we understand about you or your loved one’s diagnosis with the essentials of music instruction, we tailor instruction to all needs and all learners. We believe no one is ever too young or old to enjoy the cognitive benefits of adaptive music lessons!

BENEFITS TO ALL

We support individuals with Autism, Alzheimer’s/Dementia, Strokes, Developmental Disabilities, Parkinson’s Disease, ADHD/ADD, Depression, Addiction, and Traumatic Brain Injuries, and also provide unique and enjoyable group interventions.
