Creative Arts Therapy for Adults
It recently came to my attention that when you look around our website, it is pretty clear that we offer services for children, but it is not as obvious that we offer services for adults. I think one of the reasons for this is that on our Instagram, Facebook, and other social media pages, we share a lot of visual content that depicts children and activities for families. I also share my songs and videos that I use in early childhood enrichment programs frequently, because I know there are a lot of parent readers out there who are paying attention to what I have to say!
Today I want to highlight some of the ways in which we serve adults and I invite you to share these services with the adults in your life who could benefit!

Making people more aware of the music therapy profession is a big part of my work as a music therapist. Today I'm talking about how music therapy will benefit your non-verbal child. In my work at The Sonatina Center, I have worked with many non-verbal children, some who learn to verbally communicate and some who learn to communicate in other ways. All of these children have benefited from their experience with a music therapist.
