All you need is LOVE ❤️🎶

This Valentine’s Day, we’re using the song “LOVE” to support bilateral movement by engaging both sides of the brain through rhythm, repetition, and connection.

At Musical Bridges, we intentionally connect music therapy goals to everyday routines to help clients build skills they can use beyond the session.

Big news! 🎶 We’re launching a new series: Fact of the Week. A huge thank you to our Junior Board member, Raeya, for bringing this initiative to life!

The Fact: Did you know that music therapy allows people with disabilities to express love and emotion when words aren't enough? It’s more than just sound—it’s a connection.

We’ll be sharing these insights every week to highlight how music changes lives. Drop a ❤️ if you believe in the power of music!

We love our work with Clarendale West End!

Cold-weather learning can be meaningful and engaging! 🧤❄️

Using winter clothing visuals paired with music, this activity targets academic skills and activities of daily living by helping the client identify what clothing is appropriate to wear when it’s cold outside. Connecting learning to real-life experiences, especially after Tennessee's recent snow and ice, supports comprehension, decision-making, and functional independence!

At Musical Bridges, we intentionally connect music therapy goals to everyday routines to help clients build skills they can use beyond the session.

Proprioceptive input doesn’t have to be boring! 🎶

Through body squeezes paired with a familiar song, this activity supports regulation, body awareness, and participation. Giving the client the opportunity to choose different body parts encourages autonomy and keeps the session playful and engaging.

At Musical Bridges, sensory regulation is a key component of our sessions. When individuals are dysregulated, they are not feeling comfortable and are often unable to make progress toward their goals. Our priority is helping every client feel safe and supported in their own body.
