MUSIC
THERAPY

Music therapy is an evidence-based clinical use of musical interventions to improve the child's quality of life. Music therapists use music and its many facets— physical, emotional, mental, social, aesthetic, and spiritual— to help children improve their health in cognitive, motor, emotional, communicative, social, sensory, and educational domains by using both active and receptive music experiences. These experiences include improvisation, re-creation, composition, receptive methods, and discussion of music.
