Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to have musical experience to participate in music therapy?
No! Music therapy is designed to be errorless and adaptable to any individual's level of experience and comfort.
What is the difference between music therapy and a music lesson?
Music therapy and music education can look similar, but they have different intentions. Music lessons have an educational goal, while music therapy has therapeutic goals. Some music therapy can include adapted instrument or singing lessons, and learning a new skill can have therapeutic value, but education is not the primary goal.
Can I do music therapy myself?
There are many ways to engage in music independently that have therapeutic value, such as singing, listening to music, or dancing. However, music therapy is a clinical practice that requires a therapist and client relationship.
