• Music therapy highlights strengths while addressing weaknesses or challenges

• Music therapy can help address issues with sensory processing or integration

• Music therapy promotes communication and expression without the need for words

• Music therapy can address social skills and help foster meaningful relationships

What it may look like:

• Dimmed lights to decrease sensory overload

• Vocal improvisations on neutral syllables

• Drumming to promote bilateral use across midline

• Strumming guitar to promote hand-eye coordination and hand strength

Music is the only thing we can engage with that activates every part of our brain
