Music therapy is a creative and expressive form of therapy, that offers an opportunity to support one’s health and well-being through musical engagement. GreenValley Counselling Services offers music therapy in Ontario at a number of our offices.
Musical psychotherapy giveschildren the opportunity to explore their feelings and communicate their needs. Because music does not rely on verbal skills, it offers children a creative way to express themselves.
Adults also benefit from music al therapy, as music can support self-reflection and expressive communication. Both familiar songs and improvised music can be used to work towards goal areas, such as emotional, cognitive, or psychological. No musical ability or experience necessary.
