Music Therapy is for anyone regardless of age or musical talent. Music Therapy is not just for kids! Unlike traditional music classes, music therapy is more about the therapeutic process of sound and rhythms than the quality of musical skill. A music therapist is trained in using music to address anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional behavioral issues, developmental delays, identity, chronic stress and more. Music therapy offers clients a different more playful and active form of communication, which is helpful in therapy where clients are often prompted to bring up difficult topics. Music therapy can also be a great fit for a person looking to incorporate self expression and self care into their therapy as it offers a creative way to express yourself and engage while processing difficult topics.

Did you know you that when an individual is listening to music, their stress levels can decrease, and it can even release chemicals in the brain associated with happiness like dopamine and serotonin? When an individual engages in creating music with a rhythmic sound or instrument, it actually regulates the body’s nervous system. Music therapy is founded in the research that as we find rhythm and engage in sound healing, our brain creates new pathways for learning and growth. Music Therapy offers a non threatening way to communicate our needs and emotions. Individuals can problem solve, and experiment safely in their music. Music Therapists offer a space for clients to create a sense of autonomy and develop new coping skills. Music therapy actually reaches clients in a way that traditional talk therapy falls short.
