As Sound Expression, as well as providing individual music therapy, we also provide group music therapy for children and adults of various needs, ages, and abilities. Often, we get asked the question, “What does a music therapy group look like?”
Here’s an example of one of our music therapy groups. This group targeted play and social skills, which are so important in any child’s development. We worked on goals such as:
- regulation skills
- developing listening skills and the ability to follow directions
- leadership skills
- developing confidence in social settings
- working as a team
- waiting, turn-taking, and joint play
The best part is that the children really enjoy themselves while working hard on these developmental goals!
