🎶 What Happens in a Music Therapy Session?

Every session is unique - because every person is different.
We might play instruments, sing, listen to music, move, or create sounds together. The goal isn’t to learn how to play music - it’s to use music as a tool to support emotional expression, communication, social connection, and wellbeing.

A big part of music therapy is improvisation - creating music in the moment.
Music therapists are specifically trained to listen and respond musically to each child’s needs, emotions, and cues. This allows the therapist to support communication, connection, and self-expression in a way that’s flexible and deeply personal.

Unlike music lessons, there’s no pressure to perform or get it “right.” Sessions are guided by the individual’s needs and led by the music we create together.

Music therapy can help children and adults express themselves, build confidence, and connect in meaningful ways. 💛

🎶 What is Music Therapy?
Music therapy is a clinical, evidence-based health profession where a qualified music therapist uses music to support emotional, social, communication, physical, and cognitive development.

It can involve playing instruments, singing, listening, moving to music, songwriting, or improvisation—always tailored to each person’s needs and abilities.

❌ It’s different to music education, music lessons, or entertainment — the focus is always on health, functioning, and well-being.
✅ It’s a therapeutic process with clear goals, grounded in professional training.

Music therapy can support children and adults of all abilities to express themselves, build skills, and connect in meaningful ways.

Whether it's singing, dancing, listening to old songs or playing an instrument, music can be transformative for people living with dementia. Engaging in music together is also a great way that you can connect to a loved one living with the condition.
