Music Therapy
is the clinical and evidence-based use of music interventions to achieve individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship.
​
These goals support a wide range of health domains, including emotional, social, communication, motor, cognitive, and spiritual.
​
This evidence-based approach includes techniques such as listening to, reflecting on, and creating music under the guidance of a trained music therapist.
Regardless of musical background, people of all ages, from infancy to end of life, may find music therapy to be a suitable fit for their therapeutic needs.
​
​
Each heartbeat holds rhythm;
every sound creates melody.
Embrace the music within you, for it is a sacred expression of you.
