Music Therapy

Elizabeth Ferguson, program director

Music Therapy addresses specific physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs within a therapeutic relationship. Individually tailored sessions will address specific goals developed by clients and their caregivers in consultation with the therapist.

Goals may include improving self-esteem, improving social interactions with peers, increasing participation, promoting reality orientation, developing coping skills, reducing stress and anxiety, promoting expression of verbal and non-verbal communication, increasing on-task behavior, improving control over motor skills, and developing creative self-expression.

Music therapy is offered in individual and small group sessions; please call for information or to arrange a consultation.
