Music Therapy

Restore Calm, Balance, and Clarity Through the Healing Power of Music

What Is Music Therapy?

Creative Expression That Promotes Healing

Music Therapy uses evidence-based techniques such as listening, improvisation, songwriting, and guided lyric analysis to help clients explore feelings and regulate emotions. These sessions, led by trained therapists, encourage both relaxation and active participation—offering opportunities for deep reflection, self-expression, and improved mental health.

Sessions can be tailored for individuals or small groups and are integrated into personalized recovery plans.
