Learn about our client-centered,

interactive music interventions

Music therapy is designed to meet specific goals and improve sensorimotor, emotional, cognitive, communication, and social functioning, while promoting overall health and well-being of patients. Interventions include but are not limited to singing, playing percussion and other instruments, moving to music, lyric analysis, songwriting, improvising, manipulatives/visual aides, and using music as a motivator for movement, behavior, communication, and more.

Choose in-person or new tele-therapy options so you can get high quality music therapy no matter where you live.

No prior musical abilities are necessary to start music therapy.

ADHD

Music is rhythm, rhythm is structure, and structure is soothing to an ADHD brain struggling to regulate itself to stay on a linear path.

Music Therapy over time helps a child with ADHD learn to plan, anticipate, and react to various situations.
