Rhythm and Sound Music Therapy provides individualised, evidence-based support tailored to each person’s strengths, needs, and goals.
Sessions may work towards a range of therapeutic outcomes, including targeting the following areas:
Communication & Speech
Live music-making, singing, and vocal activities to support speech production, breath control, expressive communication, and confidence using the voice.
Increased Cognitive Functioning and Development
Structured musical exercises to strengthen memory, attention, sequencing, task initiation, and cognitive flexibility.
Movement & Physical Skills
Rhythmic interventions to improve gross motor coordination, gait stability, movement planning.
Adapted instrumental activities to further develop and strengthen fine motor skills, bilateral coordination, hand function, and functional movement skills.
Please note, to work towards these goals, the person receiving music therapy sessions needs to be additionally accessing services from a physiotherapist so that the music therapist can work in conjunction with the physiotherapist’s assessments*.
