Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to have musical skills for music therapy?

No, you do not need any musical skills to attend music therapy. I will help you along the sessions. All you need are your interest in music and being yourself!

Music lessons involves education aspects such as learning to play musical instruments and music theory. Music entertainment purposes on using music for relaxation and enjoyment.

​

Music therapy on the other hand, is an allied health profession that uses music to support people to achieve their non-musical goals e.g. social skills, communication. In music therapy, various interventions are used to address individual NDIS goals. 

Sessions structure is tailored to each client's unique goals and needs. The content may include but are not limited to:

• Singing favourite or familiar songs

• Exploration & playing a variety of musical instruments 

• Songwriting & musical composition 

• Movement-based and gross motor activities

• Musical improvisation and creative play

​

The music therapist will guide and support you in a safe, engaging and meaningful environment that encourages participation and enjoyment.
