ABOUT MUSIC THERAPY
Music therapy, according to the Bristish Association for Music Therapy (BAMT), is a psychological clinical therapy, delivered by HCPC registered music therapists. An established and allied health profession, Music Therapy is the clinical and evidence-based use of music with all its elements to help people with their physical and mental health, through supporting their psychological, emotional, cognitive, physical, communicative and social needs, or functional outcomes.
Music, as a non-verbal medium, can express feelings that cannot be put into words, and music therapists are committed to supporting clients of any age and ability regardless of musical skill, culture or background.
In a music therapy session, instruments and voices are used to help people to communicate in their own musical language whatever the ability.
