Coast Music Therapy -
Music therapy is a
professional health discipline that uses music as a
therapeutic stimulus to achieve non-musical treatment
goals. Research documents that many children with
special needs exhibit a high level of preference for
music and show processing capabilities for musical
stimuli that support deficits in related non-music
areas. In this way, music can be used as a motivator
and alternate learning avenue for select skills
that may be more difficult for an individual to achieve
using typical non-music instructional approaches.
Music-based approaches used by music therapists include
singing, rhythm activities, movement, and instrument
playing designed to target developmental or
educational goals. Services include direct therapy or
consultation. Visit
