Music Therapy

Music Therapists (MTs) help consumers (AKA clients, patients) achieve functional goals through use of musical interventions such as creating, singing, moving to, and/or listening to music. For example, a consumer may have a goal to increase their number of spoken words and the MT may work on this goal through specific use of songs that promote participation at specific times in a song. Or a consumer may have a goal to improve social interaction and the MT may facilitate progress in this goal through drum circle model and repeat play.
