Music therapy is not just for people who ‘need therapy’, but it can be a successful tool to bring people together. We are regularly approached by schools, companies and charities looking to integrate music therapy into their team building programs, or if we’re working with a specific client and your team needs some training to support the therapy and provide the home program. You might want to add this to a CPD event, school workshop program, or for some additional staff training.
Workshops are great for people that are looking to increase staff knowledge about music therapy, and provide some skills for staff/carers to use with their clients and loved ones. This can really support the music therapist in your setting, as well as create skilled staff to increase therapeutic music by implementing a home program (that we can provide) within your environment.
Where a music therapist is not currently employed, workshops can provide an insight into music therapy and its principles so that staff can refer clients to services that they need, and learn basic techniques to use music within their settings.
Workshops can range from a simple presentation, to a full day of theory and experiential music-making. Workshops are built according to the specifications of your needs, so please make an enquiry to discuss your interest.
We use MusAbility for several of our clients who are currently, and have previously been through the medical negligence court system. MusAbility’s services are not only professional, timely and evidence-based in their clinical assessments, but the clients also show real developments in long-term work where many other health professionals declared none were possible. A truly inspirational team.
Not only can we see the clear changes in behaviour for the children that attend music therapy…but it’s giving the staff new skills and techniques to work with the children that need a little extra support. Just brilliant.
It is absolutely fascinating to see how this child responds in music therapy…to be surrounded by verbal interaction, then be met in an environment when words are sometimes not used at all…it is incredibly impactive. I think it should be available to every child!
I have honestly never seen anything like it…music therapy reaches this child at such a profound level, we are in tears of joy every session, and their development visibly increases week to week.
Some of the children in our school are that bit older…and they really struggle to engage both in the classroom and with staff on a 1:1 basis. Music therapy breaks down all boundaries. They love the sessions, and they think it’s so ‘cool’ that they are pushed to reach their potential…sometimes without even realising it!
Our music therapist is an integral part of our team. Not only do they engage clinically with the clients, but they also liaise with staff within the multi-disciplinary team…most importantly always putting the client first. We absolutely could not do without music therapy…and our clients wouldn’t allow it!
At MusAbility we believe the client comes first and so will do everything in our power to support and help our clients to reach their maximum potential
