Music therapy
Our music therapy sessions use sound to create a safe environment where students can explore their feelings and memories at their own pace.
Music therapy sessions use sound to create a safe environment where students can explore their feelings and memories.
We deliver tailored sessions on a one-to-one basis or as a group to meet a students’ specific needs.
Sessions take place at one of three different sensory rooms, or at other locations. The therapist and student, through improvisation, will create and develop a musical language of their own.
A typical music therapy session may begin with a welcome song, which may develop into an improvisation.
It can focus on pre-composed music or an improvised piece. Students decide the choice of instrument and playing style. The session ends with a closing song to signal the end of the session.
Our specialist music therapists work with our other therapy teams and care workers to provide the best learning environment.
