Music therapy is a form of therapy that uses music to address the physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of participants. A trained music therapist guides the group through various musical techniques and interventions to achieve their therapeutic goals. The sessions include various musical activities such as listening to music, playing instruments, singing, improvising, and moving to music. The specific interventions used depend on the client's preferences, abilities, and therapeutic goals. Music therapy can benefit people of all ages and abilities, including individuals with developmental disabilities, mental health conditions, neurological disorders, chronic illnesses, and those experiencing emotional difficulties or stress.
