How It Works

Our process begins with a free consultation to understand your organization’s goals and explore how music therapy can benefit your community. From there, we’ll design a customized plan for programming, which may include:

  • Individual Sessions: One-on-one therapy for clients or patients with specific needs.

  • Group Sessions: Engaging, goal-oriented group therapy tailored to your population.

  • Specialized Workshops: One-time or recurring workshops focused on relaxation, wellness, or skill development.

  • Seasonal or Holiday Programs: Celebratory or themed music therapy sessions for special occasions.

Scheduling, session frequency, and programming specifics are fully adaptable to ensure the best fit for your organization.

Customized Sessions

  • Flexible Approaches

    Session content is adjusted over time to reflect evolving needs and progress.

    After a comprehensive intake session, your therapist will design a tailored plan

  • Goal-Based Interventions

    Techniques chosen specifically to meet therapeutic goals, such as improving motor skills, enhancing emotional resilience, or building social connections.

  • Personal Preferences

    We enjoy incorporating your favorite songs, genres, or musical activities to ensure each session is meaningful and engaging.

Healing Rhythms was created with a vision to expand high-quality music therapy services for people and organizations.
