Make the most of your sessions
Clear Goals
Identify your objectives for music therapy, such as reducing stress or improving communication, to help the therapist tailor the sessions to your needs
Safe Space
Understand that the therapy environment is safe for self-expression. Communicate your comfort level and boundaries while being open to stepping out of your comfort zone.
Relevant Background
Share your musical preferences, past experiences with music, and specific challenges you're facing to assist in creating a personalized therapy plan.
Patience and Commitment
Recognize that change might take time and progress can be gradual. Stay dedicated, attend sessions consistently, and communicate openly with your therapist about your journey
Open Engagement
You don't need musical expertise; a willingness to explore new musical experiences, whether through listening or playing. The focus is on using music as a tool for emotional expression and growth.
Emotional Expression
Music can evoke emotions; expect to engage with feelings that might arise during the session.
