Music Therapy for Children & Teens with Developmental Disabilities

In general, music aids in the development of the right side of the brain like many areas of art. But did you know that the right side of the brain is also where our communication, emotional, and social skills reside? For any young child to learn, their environment needs to feel safe, whether that’s meeting their sensory needs, emotional needs, social needs. It is my job to provide a safe and structured environment, catered towards individual needs to help with some of the following areas:

• Communication Skills

• Socialization and social awareness

• Gross and Fine Motor Skills

• Emotional Regulation

• Cognitive Skills

• Expressive and Receptive Communication

• Self-esteem

I work with individuals who have had diagnoses of ADHD, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Down syndrome, emotional difficulties, and other areas. Please feel free to reach out for more information.
