WHAT IS MUSIC THERAPY?

Music Therapy is the evidenced-based practice of using music as the medium while working in a therapeutic relationship with the client to reach non-musical goals. These goals can encompass developmental, cognitive, social, emotional, or sensory needs.

PHILOSOPHY

We believe in the ability and need for creative expression in all people. We take a person-centered approach to music therapy by celebrating and building on the strengths of individuals while also supporting them in achieving wellness goals through music intervention.  We strive to create and foster a safe environment where each client can reestablish their relationship with themselves through curiosity and vulnerability.
