What is Music Therapy
Music therapy is a research-based allied health profession in which music is used to actively support people as they aim to improve their health, functioning and wellbeing. It can help people of all ages to manage their physical and mental health and enhance their quality of life.

Support for your goals
In music therapy, music-based activities and experiences such as singing, playing instruments, songwriting, dancing or movement to music and music listening are used to support a wide range of non-musical goals based on the individual needs of participants. These may include social, emotional, cognitive, physical, communication, parent-child bonding, well-being and quality of life goals.
Music therapists work collaboratively with participants, their support people, and other allied health professionals to plan, facilitate and evaluate music therapy programs that support participants in achieving their goals and enhance their quality of life.
The right support for you
You donβt need any previous musical experience or skill to benefit from music therapy! My Therapy Crew offers music therapy services for people of all ages and abilities.
Music therapy is an NDIS-funded support and can be delivered through individual or group sessions with a Registered Music Therapist. These sessions can be weekly or fortnightly, depending on individual arrangement or needs.
The specialist training of a Registered Music Therapist is distinct from other allied health professions and separates music therapy from participation in non-clinical or recreation-based music activities such as music lessons or community music groups.
