Therapy

Music therapy for kids

Board Certified Music Therapists (MT-BC) use rhythm, song and instruments to build attention, memory, communication and social skills, an approach many autistic children respond to. Sessions are planned with your child's wider team, so a song that eases transitions here can help in ABA and at home.
