Music Therapy (MT) is an evidence-based practice that uses music as a medium to accomplish therapeutic goals in a clinical setting. Those individualized goals may address issues of cognition, academic concepts, motor functioning, emotional needs, or socialization.
The interweaving relationship between the individual(s), the music, and the credentialed professional, establish a success-oriented therapeutic relationship. MT interventions are evidence-based, and continuing research aims to dig deeper into the evidence that supports its value in our world today.
Music Therapy may be provided in an individual or group setting. People of all ages and abilities benefit from MT treatment (Children, Adolescents, Adults & Elderly).
MT Interventions are based on the client needs and use composition, singing, moving, and listening to music to assess, address, and evaluate progress. The interventions may be designed to: promote wellness, manage stress, alleviate pain, address emotion wellbeing and mental health, address cognitive skills & social functioning, improve physical health and motor functioning, and even to access academic goals and sensory integration.
