Music Therapy

Music Therapy

Building trust through musical relationship is the cornerstone for our therapy sessions. Common goals addressed in session include finding your voice through self-expression, increasing emotional identification and regulation, improving fine and gross motor skills, reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression, increasing artistic expression, strengthening social skills, and developing communication skills. Virtual music therapy services with R&R are appropriate for ages 6 through adult, including but not limited to individuals with autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, anxiety, depression, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), dyslexia, speech and language disorders, developmental disabilities, medical stress or fatigue, and those who are processing trauma. The American Music Therapy Association (AMTA), defines music therapy as “The clinical and evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional who has completed an approved music therapy program." Board-certified music therapy services at Resilience & Reverb are provided by Rebecca McBride, M.M., MT-BC.
