Welcome to Comprehensive Music Therapy

We hope your visit to Comprehensive Music Therapy will help to inform you of the concepts of Music Therapy.

What Is Music Therapy?

Music Therapy is the "prescribed use of music by a music therapist to make positive changes in the psychological, physical and social functioning of people with health or educational problems." (American Music Therapy Association, 1999).

Music Therapy is the systematic application of music in the treatment of an illness or disability.  The use of music is substantiated by scientific method.

Music influences human behavior in ways that are observable, identifiable, measurable and predictable, providing the necessary foundation for therapeutic applications for verbal or non-verbal persons.

The Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) recognizes music therapy as a professional service, separate from other professional services.
