What is Music Therapy?

Music Therapy is the clinical and scientific application of music and music-based experiences to assist an individual(s) in addressing the improvement or maintenance of their physical, cognitive, socio- emotional, academic,
spiritual and psychological needs.

Musical Fingers LLC’s Music Therapy program is client-centered and each session is unique to each and every client or patient. Currently all music therapy sessions occur in the homes of our clients and patients. This is for their convenience, comfort and security.

Board Certified

A Board-Certified Music Therapist first conducts a clinical assessment to determine areas of need and establish goals. Music Therapy sessions then focus on the set goals through use of musical based activities and experiences. Responses, both musical and non-musical, are documented post-session to keep track of progress.

Multiple Appications

Music therapy sessions are ideal for children and teens with autism, developmental disabilities, and neurologic impairments who could benefit
from new approaches to the skills they have been working on.
