Music is a powerful, universal tool, used throughout the existence of humanity as a method of communication, a way to influence emotions, and a means to access connection to ourselves and others. Furthermore, learning with music is done through a double encoding process, where information is processed both verbally and aurally. This strengthens the memory trace during learning. Music, when used actively and intentionally, is a uniquely impactful healing tool!

However, most people do not inherently know how to use music to move towards healing - your clients might even be using music in a harmful way, to isolate and stay stuck in a dysregulated or negative emotional state. And, while unintended, therapists who use music in sessions without a proper understanding of how music connects to emotions can potentially trigger overwhelming emotions, harmful behaviors, and/or repressed memories.

We want to help YOU use music in therapy. Through our easy to follow session plans, you will have all the direction and tools you need to show your clients how to take their connection to music and use it safely and effectively in their healing journey.
